MacKinney Systems Testing and Debugging Tools

ISPF/VSAM Utility provides online access to the most used VSAM functions typically done with IDCAMS batch processing: allocating (defining), renaming, copying, and deleting VSAM files with no LRECL or file size restrictions.

VSAM AdminAid aids in monitoring, tuning, and reorganizing the production of VSAM files. VAA reduces online response times, batch window, CPU cycles, DASD space usage, and VSAM administration time.

Features include:

• CICS/MAPR II: Create or modify CICS screens fast and easily
• Easy Help for CICS: Easy to implement interactive help without program changes
• CICS/Forward Recovery: Quickly recovers corrupted or lost CICS VSAM files

Data Management

CICS File Availability provides file reorganization with concurrent update access in CICS, bringing you closer to 24-7 availability. After a CICS to batch file copy, any tasks accessing the file are suspended for the time it takes for a file rename. Users see a small delay during the rename instead of file-closed error messages.

MacKinney Batch to CICS (MBC) provides the ability to control CICS resources from batch. With 50-plus commands, you can easily alter VSAM, RLS, program, tranid and TDQ resources. Complete audit trails and full security help make MBC a choice tool for Fortune 500 companies.
