Management Central plug-ins

 

A plug-in is a separately installable component of iSeries™ Navigator. A plug-in adds folders and objects to the hierarchy tree, choices to iSeries Navigator menus, and property pages to the property sheet for a folder or object. There are several Management Central plug-ins that you can use to manage your system.

• Backup, Recovery, and Media Services (BRMS)
  IBM^® Backup, Recovery, and Media Services (BRMS) helps you implement a disciplined approach to managing your backups and provides you with an orderly way to retrieve lost or damaged data.

• Clusters
  Clusters let you efficiently group your System i™ products together to set up an environment that provides availability that approaches 100 percent for your critical applications, devices, and data.

• Working with systems with partitions
  The Systems with Partitions container that is located under Management Central lets you manage the logical partitions of all of the servers on the system from the central system.

• Advanced Job Scheduler
  The Advanced Job Scheduler licensed program (5722-JS1) is a powerful scheduler that allows unattended job processing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This scheduling tool provides more calendar features and offers greater control over scheduled events than the Management Central scheduler. You can also view job completion history and manage notification of a job's status.
