PRIMEUR is pleased to announce Release 2.2.1 of Orchestration Suite Enterprise, the product that provides Data Moving governance features, such as discovery, catalogue monitor and report, for Managed File Transfer products like SPAZIO, NetView FTP, C:D, XCOM, FTP and others.
One of the most important features of Orchestration Suite version 2.2.1 is WMQFTE management.
The purpose of the Orchestration Suite is to provide the company with a solution that makes it possible to catalog data flows, both internal and to/from the outside, support and optimize the planning of transfers and provide an audit trail system at the various company levels (operators and system managers, applications and business) tailored for the various roles.
The tool is also able to discover and catalog all the transfers that have taken place, in a semi-automatic manner, and can check whether each flow catalogued complies with the established service levels, generating alarms in the case of faults or discrepancies.
Enhancements
- Support for a new transmission channel between agents and server: IBM WebSphere MQ
- Support for new recognition criteria for flows
- this version can recognize a flow that starts with/ends with/contains a set of characters
- recognition via job name that triggers the FT
- Management of history for composite flows

New FTs and MFTs managed
We have released a number of components in order to create native support for the Sterling Commerce product Connect:Direct in both z/OS and departmental environments.

The Server provides the following services on the logs received:
- Discovery: possibility to identify even articulated WMQ FTE flows (Composite Flows) by means of recognition criteria and selection of all the instances belongings to the same flow; the flows identified can also belong to Directories, or File Groups, depending on the type of criterion used in order identifying them.
