Automation Services provides focal point management to support multisystem operation (that is, management at a focal point with subordinates feeding information to it) as follows:
Supports full connectivity between multiple regions. Regions linked in this way are known as focal point regions. (A stand-alone region is also regarded as a focal point region.)
When regions are communicating with each other, authorized users can monitor and control all managed resources from any terminal connected to a focal point region.
All focal point regions have the knowledge base synchronized.
Enables you to reduce the amount of traffic in your multisystem environment. You link subordinates to focal point regions that provide central monitoring and control. A subordinate has visibility and control of the locally managed resources only.
Each region can run independently of other regions. If no communication links are available, each region still provides full monitoring, control, and automation of its own managed resources. If one region fails, automation continues for resources that are managed by the other regions.
You can also transmit various types of data from a stand-alone region to another region.
Multisystem links support the following communication access methods: EndPoint Services (EPS), TCP/IP, and VTAM.
Automation Services automatically maintains synchronization between linked knowledge bases, with automatic recovery in the event of link failure.
