Changes for Version 3-September 1998

The following changes have been made for this edition:

Enterprise Administration
You can manage a network of servers in a consistent way from a single, web browser-based administrative interface. You can set up one server as the configuration manager that distributes configuration information (such as policy) to managed servers. In the network of servers you can route commands to one or more servers.

Enterprise event logging and monitoring
You can log events from other servers and clients to a specific ADSM server.

Enterprise console
The enterprise console is a web browser-based interface from which you can access ADSM server functions. When you log on to a configuration manager via the web interface, you access the enterprise console. The enterprise console can give the administrator a complete view of the ADSM installations in an enterprise. To use the web interface, you must have a browser with support installed for Java 1.1. See ADSM Quick Start for more information.

Enterprise logon
From the administrative web interface, you can log on to an ADSM server once, and work with multiple servers to which you have administrative authority without having to log on again.

ADSM server scripts
You can create and store server scripts in the ADSM database. Scripts can contain ADSM administrative commands and can include conditional statements that evaluate the results of earlier commands in the script before proceeding. Scripts can be distributed to other servers and can be scheduled to run with the DEFINE SCHEDULE command.

Database and recovery log automation
You can set up triggers that automate increasing the size of the database or recovery log based on utilization levels.

Storage pool migration by age
You can set a minimum age for data before the server can migrate the data from a storage pool.

Disaster Recovery Manager plan file
You can store the recovery plan file on another server to which your server has access via server-to-server communication.
