An important feature for any enterprise-wide information product is the ability to effectively control and manage the distribution of files and work throughout the network. CA XCOM Data Transport systems maintain a comprehensive log of all transfer activity. Utilities are provided to allow the system administrator to view the log online and modify the status of pending or currently active transfers.
Details of any transfer errors are also maintained in the log, allowing rapid problem determination and resolution. In addition, messages signaling the completion of any CA XCOM Data Transport event can be directed to a user in the network.
An important requirement today for any enterprise is the need to reduce costs associated with CPU utilization. CA XCOM Data Transport systems provide for offloading of CPU intensive workloads to a zIIP processor to lower the cost of performing file transfers on the mainframe.
Data compression and de-compression functions, which by nature are CPU intensive, will be offloaded to a zIIP processor when available and feasible to effectively reduce the cost of the transfer in terms of processor utilization.
