Tape Workload Analyser

Batch Magic

Batch Magic is a powerful tool designed to assist you in optimising the performance of your tape environment, and the planning of future investment in Tape Equipment. Optimising your tape performance can also help to reduce your batch window.

Due to the advances in tape technology, such as Virtualisation, FICON Connectivity and the ability to create a remote dual copy, tape remains an important and cost effective medium for the storage of large amounts of data.

At the same time as improving performance and cost effectiveness, these advances do mean that tape equipment is often shared across multiple systems. This increases the complexity of maintaining optimum performance from your tape environment and planning the future investment in your tape hardware.

Batch Magic allows you to consolidate all the relevant SMF data from multiple systems for longer periods, for example two weeks. Using this consolidated information you can begin to understand the true nature of you tape workload.

Utilising Batch Magic's graphical user interface with tabular and graphical output, allows you to change the focus of the analysis, and lets you zoom into a particular period or type of workload.
