Introduction to CA IDMS Visual DBA

CA IDMS Visual DBA is a robust, comprehensive tool that enables you to view and manage CA IDMS objects from a single, object-oriented graphical user interface (GUI). Because of the use of customizable profiles, it allows an end-user, a programmer, a security administrator, a DC administrator, a data administrator, and a database administrator (DBA) to perform essential, everyday tasks quickly with an easy-to-use, intuitive, graphical user interface under Microsoft Windows.

With CA IDMS Visual DBA, you no longer need to be concerned with the details of how to view and/or manage your database objects, such as learning the syntax for multiple online compilers, DCMT commands, or the SQL language. CA IDMS Visual DBA simplifies the operations that you perform routinely, enabling you to increase your productivity and decrease the learning curve typically associated with database administration.
