AUTOMON® for iSpool v100 is an integrated solution that addresses the shortfall found with native System i spool management. If you have difficulties with any of the following, then AUTOMON® for iSpool v100 will certainly help give you extended capabilities that are so often in demand:
- Copying spool files between output queues
- Automating archiving management of spool files
- Sending spool files to other System i servers on your network
- Splitting files before distribution
- Managing lists of spool files and output queues
- Ensuring DASD isn’t unnecessarily taken up
- Printing documents locally
AUTOMON®/iSpool v100 provides comprehensive on-line facilities, ultimately improving service for end users while reducing printing costs and minimizing the need for operator intervention.
AUTOMON®/iSpool v100 will index documents (by customer name, account number, invoice number as an example) and will store all documents in a compressed format to reduce DASD storage which is so often in short supply!
Finally, when access to certain spool files isn’t readily required, files can be archived on a “one-off” basis, or if referred, through tailorable archive definitions, that specify which spool files to archive and when.
