Speed-up IDCAMS REPRO, EXPORT and IMPORT

FASTVSAM transparently replaces IDCAMS REPRO, EXPORT and IMPORT commands, and reduces the time and resources required for VSAM copy, and Export/Import procedures by more than 50%. High-speed logic and command flexibility save FASTVSAM users time and money during VSAM management and maintenance tasks. The larger the dataset, the greater the savings. FASTVSAM is compatible with SMP, SMP/E, DFDSS, SMS and RACF. FASTVSAM is a member of the FAST PACK and is licensed individually, or as part of the FAST PACK family of products.

IDCAMS

Benefits

FASTVSAM streamlines complex and time-consuming VSAM management and maintenance. FASTVSAM lets you restore all original data in half the time otherwise required, with alternative index data restored as is or modified. Using its own high-speed logic, FASTVSAM delivers considerable savings during the peak hours, when restore requests most commonly occur. This increases throughput by 50% or more and reduces elapsed time by up to 70%. FASTVSAM enhances Export/Import procedures with the use of wild card name specifications. FASTVSAM is also 2 to 4 times faster than IDCAMS - Export/Import. FASTVSAM can also improve resource management by reducing CPU time by 50% or more and cutting EXCP counts by up to 80%. FASTVSAM copies a cluster faster, speeding up the job of system and data management. This means that backups are faster and the data will be available to users sooner.
