Responsibilities

As the CA Dataquery Administrator, you are responsible for ensuring that all the system tasks required for optimum CA Dataquery performance are performed. During use of CA Dataquery, you ensure that the system needs of the users are met and that the system maintenance includes the CA Dataquery needs. You tune CA Dataquery and CA Datacom/DB to improve or maintain the performance. To perform these tasks, you need to work with the Database Administrator, the systems programmer, the Security Administrator, the CA Datacom Datadictionary Administrator, and possibly the CA Dataquery users.

Your system responsibilities include:

• Knowing the system defaults that affect end users.
• Providing the Database Administrator with information about CA Dataquery end-user needs.
• Being knowledgeable about CA Dataquery batch utilities.
• Understanding the operation of any user exits designed at your site which affect the end user.
• Knowing how to use CA Dataquery diagnostics and CA Datacom/DB accounting statistics in monitoring system and user performance.
• Maintaining signon information.

Site Standards

Your site can have one CA Dataquery Administrator who performs all of the CA Dataquery administrative functions, or it could have several CA Dataquery Administrators among whom the tasks are divided, or performed for a particular group of users, such as an office with more than one department.
