Bad News…or an Opportunity?

You all face a familiar situation:

• Your companies are facing explosive data growth…

they need newer, bigger, faster disk storage systems.

Bad news…or an opportunity?

Opportunity!…

• You can help your company begin to use their new

z/OS™ disk storage with absolutely no disruption to

ongoing business.

• You can help your company consolidate z/OS™ disk

volumes with minimal disruption to ongoing business.

Customers are under pressure…

The Challenge…Facing an overwhelming explosive data growth customers

must upgrade to faster, higher capacity more reliable and ultimately less

expensive disk storage while maintaining 24 x 7 data availability.

Most customers do not have the time nor the desire to solve this

dilemma…

They want a solution that will allow them to reap the benefits of consolidating

storage, servers and bringing up new applications with peace of mind; knowing

their systems will have access to faster, higher capacity more reliable and

ultimately less expensive disk storage while maintaining 24 x 7 data availability.

You have a solution…

That will allow customers to begin using newer, faster, lower cost and more

reliable z/OS™ disk storage systems sooner without any interruption to ongoing

business while consolidating to a lesser number of volumes with minimal

business disruption...,any time.



Why Consolidate?

• Simplify Management• Fewer–

• z/OS volumes

• Multi-volume datasets

• Hardware volumes to define

• Hardware and Software Architectural Constraints• Software limitations on number of z/OS UCBs

• Reclaim UCBs when hitting 64k limit

• Hardware limitations on number of physical HDD

• Users can’t define enough z/OS disks to fill a system…

It’s obvious customers that buy new disk systems want to migrate

their data to new systems…but

Why do customer want to consolidate?

Customers want to “Simplify Management” –

•Fewer z/OS volumes – fewer multi-volume datasets

•Simpler hardware config…

an "HDA" can hold more than a hundred 3390-3 volumes,

•a “Raid Group” can hold a thousand 3390-3 or hundreds of 3390-9s

•Hardware and Software “Architectural Constrains

“IBM Statement of Direction”

…promoting larger volumes…9, 27, 54

Customers need to begin using larger volumes…before they hit

architectural constrains (which some already have)

Software limitation on the number of UCB’s in z/OS (64K).

Need to reclaim UCBs when hitting 64k limit

The capacity of physical HDDs is increasing, (e.g. 350GB, 750GB, 1TB) to

the point where the number of physical HDD volumes in a storage system will

contain more disk capacity than the operating system can address, unless

z/OS volumes increase in size...



What’s It To You?

Opportunity!…

• Install new storage non-disruptively to get the

benefits of new storage sooner

• Consolidate volumes with little to no impact on

applications

• At anytime…Using FDRMOVE with FDRPAS

“Anytime Empowerment”

Customers install new disk: to increase capacity, decrease cost, increase

performance, decrease footprints and gain capability.

You can offer these benefits sooner and without disruption…because with

FDRPAS and FDRMOVE you can non-disruptively install the new storage and

consolidate volumes with little to no impact on their applications, at anytime.



Why Do Some Customers Use

Professional Services?

• Time Constraint• Need to complete a migration/consolidation QUICKLY

• Lack Experience – Lack Resources• No time, nor inclination to learn new software

• Professional Services• Augment existing staff

• Have years of experience

• Are familiar with the tools

Why do customers use Professional Services for data migration?

Customers typically need to complete a migration or consolidation QUICKLY.

Many customers have less than a month lead time from ordering new DASD

until the old DASD has to be removed. Often customers have neither staff

nor the inclination to spend the time learning new software products. While

Professional staff has years of experience migrating data, are familiar with

the tools and know how to avoid common pitfalls.



Why Do Professional Services

Choose FDRPAS and FDRMOVE?

• Long-term relationship with INNOVATION

• FDRPAS and FDRMOVE…• Quick to install

• Easy to use

• Get the job done fast

• Reliable

• Kept up to date with hardware enhancements

• Customers familiar with INNOVATION often prefer

Professional Services use FDRPAS and FDRMOVE

How do hardware vendors come to chose

FDRPAS™ and FDRMOVE?

A premier ISV technology partner, INNOVATION and mainframe disk storage

vendors’ engineering groups have been working in concert, for over a decade to

co-operatively develop software that will help customers enjoy the benefits of

advanced technology mainframe disk storage hardware and software solutions,

independent of operating system release or processor hardware.

INNOVATION keeps FDRPAS™ and FDRMOVE up to date with z/OS™ DASD

technology enhancements.

Hardware vendor mainframe SEs familiar with mainframe storage migration

solutions find FDRPAS™ and FDRMOVE quick to install, easy to use,

non/min-disruptive and fast…prompting customers to request FDRPAS™

and FDRMOVE.

Additionally many customers familiar with FDRPAS™ and FDRMOVE ask for

them by name, preferring them as known reliable solutions for non-disruptive

disk storage migration and minimally disruptive volume consolidation.



What is FDRPAS™?

• Volume oriented…

Non-Disruptive Disk Volume Migration Solution

• Moves disk volumes to new devices• Same size or larger volumes

• Swapping volumes while they are in use!• Putting the volume on a new device

• Handling updates in real time

• Transparent to the system and its users

What is FDRPAS?

FDRPAS™ (FDR Plug and Swap) is a Business Resiliency solution delivering

continuous 24 x 7 x 365 accessibility, by non-disruptively moving volumes

to and from z/OS disks to consolidate storage capacity on new hardware of

the same volume size or larger on the fly, while business operations continue

non-stop. FDRPAS™ capabilities include the ability to employ channel

extenders to move data centers, combine data centers and split data centers.



FDRPAS™ Customer Benefits

Volume migration with…

• No disruption to business operations

• New Storage Available Sooner

• Fast, Safe, Simple and Secure

Customer experience…

• Non-disruptively move 600+ volumes to new z/OS

disk storage system during normal business

hours, in one hour

• Swapping up to 20 volumes concurrently

to move data at a rate of 1.8 TB/hour

Customer benefits…New storage is available for use sooner

Fast, Safe and Secure – FDRPAS™ maintains data integrity…

SWAP in new, faster disk storage, during normal business hours with no

disruption to business operations.

FDRPAS increases end-user productivity…as unaffected users see only the

benefits of technology upgrades…

Recently a customer non-disruptively moved 1.8 Terabytes (600 volumes) to a

new storage system in one hour, swapping up to 20 volumes concurrently, with

no impact on normal operations.

Another customer who chose a light weekend to install new equipment writes

“Completed copying 30TB of old storage in under 2 hours 40 minutes.

w/FDRPAS running on just 2 LPARs (Note: Allocated space was only 19 TBs

for about 7TB/hr.)

And another “We migrated 1,000 volumes (43/mod 1's, 32/mod 3‘s and

784/mod 9's”) for about 7.3TB in 7 1/2 hrs. (about 1TB/hr.)

Mileage may vary but usually expect a rate of about 1.6 TB/hour.



What is FDRMOVE™?

• Data Set oriented…

Real Time Data Set Migration Solution

• Volume consolidation and data set relocation in real

time that is non or minimally-disruptive fast and easy

• Complements FDRPAS volume level migration

• Drastically reduces or eliminates downtime

What is FDRMOVE?

FDRMOVE is a volume consolidation solution providing file level migration to

complement our FDRPAS non-disruptive volume level migration solution.

FDRMOVE dramatically reduces or eliminates downtime during data set

migrations for storage consolidation, load balancing, upgrades, storage platform

changes, and simplification initiatives.

The design aim of FDRMOVE is to provide a single, extremely fast, easy to use,

automation solution for minimally-disruptive volume consolidation and data set

relocation that will address all manner of customer data.

The function of FDRMOVE quite simply is to migrate datasets from one volume

to another independent of volume size.

This functionality supports customer's storage consolidation and simplification

initiatives; i.e. moving data from small volumes to larger ones, for volume count

reduction and UCB constraint relief, as well for load balancing.



FDRMOVE Customer Benefits

• Volume consolidation/data set relocation

• Minimal disruption to business operations• Real time volume consolidation with no disruption

• Consolidates volumes in less time

• Fast, Safe, Simple and Secure

Customer experience…

• Consolidate 1500 data sets from 22 volumes to 8

volumes in just minutes…

The customers benefit…“Anytime Empowerment”

Consolidate volumes, at anytime, with little to no impact on applications.

Increase capacity, decrease cost, increase performance, decrease footprints

and consolidate volumes sooner and without disruption, because with FDRPAS

and FDRMOVE you can do it with little to no impact on business applications.

Fast, Safe, Simple and Secure, users are unaware that FDRMOVE is

consolidating volumes and FDRPAS™ is swapping volumes to the new storage.

Banking customer reports…Used FDRMOVE to consolidate 1500 data sets

resident on twenty-two (22) 3390-3 volumes to eight (8) 3390-9 volumes in just

minutes…

Here again mileage will vary and we’ll discuss performance as we describe

FDRMOVE in more detail.



FDRPAS/FDRMOVE—

Hardware Support

• Storage Hardware Independent…

• Supporting all vendors–

EMC, HDS IBM, SUN/STK

• Moving Any-to-Any like device

• Across & Between…

• Multiple Updating Systems

• Smaller to Larger

• Raid-S, Raid 10, Raid 5

• HiperPAV, PAV, non-PAV

• Midaw

• Cache Fast Write

Disk Vendor Hardware Independent…FDRMOVE with

FDRPAS…recognizes, coexists and works in conjunction with Cache Fast

Write, MIDAW and PAV (Parallel Access Volumes) and Hiper PAV on EMC

Symmetrix/DMX, Hitachi USPv/Tagmastore/USP, 9900V, IBM 2105 SHARK/

2107 DS8000 and other storage vendors’ z/OS compatible hardware.

FDRMOVE with FDRPAS integrates with HiperPAV and PAV, disabling it for the

swap and, as appropriate, re-enabling HiperPAV or PAV again after the swap.

Migrating data from any disk to any disk, of the same device type (e.g. 3390 to

3390, 3380 to 3380) to the same or larger size (e.g., 3390-3 to -3 or -9 or -27).

Non-disruptively moving smaller to larger and between like device types with

and without alternate tracks, by automatically updating system control blocks

and non-disruptively creating or rebuilding the VTOC Index (VTOCIX).



FDRPAS/FDRMOVE—

Remote Data Protection Support

Supporting all vendors–

EMC, HDS IBM, SUN/STK

Remote data protection

Across & Between…

• Multiple Updating Systems

• Local and Extended Distances

• PPRC, SRDF, TrueCopy, HUR

• HyperSwap/AutoSwap

Disk Vendor Hardware Independent…FDRMOVE with

FDRPAS…integrates with PPRC, TrueCopy, Hitachi Universal Replicator

(HUR), SRDF, GDPS/HyperSwap (IBM Geographically Dispersed Parallel

Sysplex) and GDDR/AutoSwap (EMC Geographically Dispersed Disaster

Restart). Disabling HyperSwap/Auto-Swap briefly for just the FDRPAS volume

swap and then re-enabling it again immediately after.

Generally FDRMOVE will always successfully complete with datasets being

moved to the target volume that is in a remotely protected relationship.

Employing FastMOVE to consolidate datasets to a target in an IBM or EMC

system will result in the use of FlashCopy or TF SNAP hardware replication.

FDRMOVE/FastMOVE will revert to conventional IO if the target volume is the

primary in remote data protection relationship in a Hitachi storage system that is

not a release of mCode that will provide a "Native FCTOPPRC Primary" facility.

The same support as IBM standard FlashCopy.

Always check with your local hardware vendor account team to see what

hardware and mCode is in your particular account.



FDRPAS/FDRMOVE—

Software Support

All Current z/OS Systems

• FDRPAS - Active Volumes (including)

• PLPA and Common Page volumes

• Active Coupling Facility Dataset volumes

• JES Spool/JES Checkpoint / JES3

• Master and User Catalog volumes

• FDRMOVE - Datasets and Databases

• SMS Managed and Non-SMS Managed

• CICS–VSAM, DB2, IMS, ADABAS

and non-VSAM datasets

FDRPAS™ and FDRMOVE™ are more flexible than any hardware

migration solution.

FDRPAS not limited by hardware system configurations or channel types can

non-disruptively move volumes containing active Master Catalogs, User

catalogs, JES Spool, CF datasets, PLPA and Common Page datasets. Active

Page datasets should be created new on new volumes, using the commands to

Drain/Define/Delete/Activate Page Space.

FDRMOVE automates volume consolidation at the logical file level of granularity

and the migration of inactive single & multi-volume VSAM, DB2, IMS, ADABAS

and non-VSAM datasets on SMS and non-SMS volumes to new designated

volumes…



FDRMOVE Key Strengths

• Speed• Employing hardware data replication…

• Consolidate at 1 TB/minute for 250 datasets.

• 1,000 datasets/minute across 16 volumes…

• Employing high performance EXCP IO…• 1500 DSNs from 22 vols to 8 vols in minutes

• Reliability• Over 35 years of industry excellence

• Builds on and extends well provenFDRINSTANT and FDRPAS technology

FDRMOVE Key Strengths

Speed

Identify data sets that are inactive and move them in an instant..., When

hardware replication technology is available, move 250 data sets, occupying

up to 1Terabyte of data across 16 volumes, in about 1 minute. Allocating,

cataloging and moving over 1000 small data sets per minute, with two

concurrent jobs across 16 volumes.

Concurrently moving multiple 3390-3’s in minutes with high performance

EXCP IO when hardware replication is not available.

Reliability

FDRMOVE automates the intelligent use of, builds on and extends the same

reliable proven technology found in FDRCOPY, FDRPAS and FDRINSTANT

to address all manner of data sets.

All files naturally go inactive at some point in time. Just not all at a convenient

time. FDRMOVE allows applications to continue unaffected as it non-

disruptively swaps active dataset source volumes to the target storage system,

so operations can “bounce” e.g. stop and restart, applications to momentarily

take them down and free datasets that do not naturally go inactive on a

convenient schedule.



How Does FDRMOVE Work?

• Determines state of selected data sets

• Automatically migrates inactive data sets• Allocating data sets to new volumes

• Copying data with normal or INSTANT I/O

• Recataloging data sets to the new volumes

• Continually scanning for more data sets to

become inactive…

How does FDRMOVE™ Work?

Monitoring the use of data sets to identify those that are inactive

Automatically migrates data sets the instant they become inactive:

Single & multi-volume VSAM, DB2, IMS, ADABAS and non-VSAM datasets on

SMS and non-SMS volumes to designated new volumes…

Pre-positioning source volumes in the same storage system as the new target...

to take advantage of INSTANT I/O…

• Allocating data sets to new volumes

• Copying data with INSTANT or conventional I/O

• Recataloging data sets to the new volumes

Continues scanning for more data sets to become naturally inactive…

FDRMOVE—

Has Three Simple Commands

• Three simple commands/functions• SIMMOVE–identify, plan & validate

• MOVE–high performance EXCP I/O

• FASTMOVE–using INSTANT I/O

• Designates volumes as either…• Source

• Target

• Transit

FDRMOVE has three simple commands (Functions)

SIMMOVE – identify special consideration files & validate set up

MOVE – moves inactive files without impacting applications

FASTMOVE – intelligently combines the proven technologies of system

SWAP (non-disruptive volume migration) and hardware data replication

(instant data set copy)

FDRMOVE views disk volumes as either:

Source – old volumes containing datasets to be moved

Target – new disk volumes where datasets are to reside

Transit – empty volumes in same storage system as Target volumes,

FASTMOVE uses for staging

Using FDRPAS

Start Consolidation with a SWAP

• Use FDRPAS for system volumes, catalog volumes…

• Consolidating SWAP one volume w/FDRPAS

and consolidate others w/FDRMOVE• pick volumes with most active and or largest files.

• Option to expand the VTOC if VTOC not an adequate size

Using FDRPAS Start Consolidation with a SWAP

Use FDRPAS to move system and special data sets to a target non-disruptively

swapping the volumes to Target volumes of equal or larger size that the source

volume.

Optionally use FDRPAS to move smaller capacity source volumes to the larger

capacity target disks and then use FDRMOVE to add data sets from other

volumes to fill up the free space on the larger disk.

Ensure the VTOC on the source volumes moved with FDRPAS is large enough

to accommodate the higher number of additional data sets that will eventually

reside on the larger volume.

FDRMOVE…Includes FDRPAS

Use FDRPAS to non-disruptively move the system volumes and those volumes

with special datasets e.g. Catalogs, active RACF control data set, Spool

Volumes, etc, or optionally to move the first smaller capacity source volume

to the larger capacity target…

When FDRPAS completes the SWAP the Source Volume is online in the new

storage system and there is no disruption to the active applications.

A copy of the Source remains offline in the old storage system, specially

marked to prevent it from accidentally coming online.

Then use FDRMOVE to add data sets from other source volumes to fill up the

free space on the larger disk

Is the VTOC too small?

Ensure the VTOC on the source volumes moved with FDRPAS is large enough

to accommodate the higher number of additional data sets that will eventually

reside on the larger volume. Use FDRPAS to expand the VTOC of a target as

necessary.

The BUILDIX function of ICKDSF is disruptive requiring shared DASD be put

offline to all systems but one.

FDRPAS includes EXPANDVTOC and SWAPBUILDIX useful utilities,

that employing the co-ordination techniques of FDRPAS™, allows you

to non-disruptively expand the size of the VTOC and rebuild a damaged

or missing VTOC Index while the volume remains in use on all systems.

3390-9 use a VTOC of 150 trks (accommodates about 7,000 data sets)



See the FDRMOVE Manual for notes on VTOC sizes and expanding VTOCs.

FDRMOVE Summary

A new z/OS RealTime mainframe data migration product providing file level

granularity to complement FDRPAS our existing non-disruptive volume level

migration solution.

FDRMOVE automates the intelligent use of, and builds on, our proven reliable

volume swap, dataset copy and instant hardware data replication technology to

move datasets.

Datasets can be selected by SMS Storage Group, volume or through the

catalog ... to go to a specific Storage Group, volume or groups of volumes...

• FDRMOVE identifies and moves data sets that are inactive.

• FDRMOVE automation employs FDRPAS technology to insure a source

volume(s) is in the same storage system as the new target...(transit station).

• FDRMOVE intelligence will determine when a data set becomes inactive

(not open/not allocated) and at that point use FDRInstant hardware

replication to move the data, while its recatlogs the dataset in an instant.

• FDRMOVE includes FDRPAS.
