Capacity Utilities

The NEON IMS database utilities offer powerful tools for managing capacity in both full-function and fast path databases. Using the capacity management toolset, you can easily prevent outages that can occur if your IMS databases exceed their current capacity.



For full-function databases, Partitioned Database Facility (PDF™) increases IMS database capacity and improves database performance, providing a cost-effective method for growing your business without impacting business applications. PDF allows you to manage capacity growth without redesigning IMS or requiring an all-or-nothing migration to partitioned databases. In combination with the NEON IMS Utilities, PDF provides superior performance and uses fewer IMS resources than any other solution on the market. For fast path, the utilities offer a streamlined, effective solution for IMS fast path DEDB database capacity and performance. The utilities also reduce CPU usage, efficiently managing sequential dependent (SDEP) and independent overflow (IOVF) capacity to optimize performance.

A fast-path indexing utility lets you create secondary indexes for fast path DEDBs with the database offline, providing a set of easy-to-use utilities to build, verify and maintain the indexes.
