Use CA Datacom/AD for the Files Data Base

Use CA Datacom/AD r11 SP2 for the Files Data Base for increased performance.

Business Value:

CA Datacom/AD provides a state-of-the-art, high performance database for CA Disk. CA Datacom/AD improves scalability, removes limitations, and improves performance over the legacy Files Data Set.

Additional Considerations:

The data managed by CA Datacom/AD is controlled through a started task, Multi-User Facility (MUF). CA Datacom/AD is so flexible that you can employ a wide range of possible configurations and methodologies. For more information about configurations and methodologies suitable for CA Disk, see the CA Disk Integration Guide. All of the operational jobs related to the MUF and the databases within the context of CA Disk are also documented. Several example SQL jobs for querying your data once it has been moved under CA Datacom/AD control are also provided.

More Information:

For more information, see the chapter "Datacom Overview" in the Integration Guide. For more information about CA Datacom/AD, see the CA Datacom/AD Installation and Maintenance Guide – z/OS.
