FastAudit includes Catalog & DASD Audit™, HSM FastAudit™, HSM FastAudit-MediaControls™, and Tape Audit™. Catalog & DASD Audit evaluates all master and user catalog data set entries, and reconciles against all DASD VTOC information on currently-mounted volumes. Find such problems as unused alias entries, unconnected nodes, uncataloged data sets, and data sets cataloged to the wrong volumes. The audit also provides tools to automatically reconcile multiple master catalogs. HSM FastAudit evaluates the Migration Control Data Set (MCDS), Backup Control Data Set (BCDS), and the Offline Control Data Set (OCDS) to resolve structural and logical discrepancies that can prevent migrated data from being recalled, or backup data from being restored. It correlates entries with the ICF catalog environment to ensure consistency. This function set duplicates most DFSMShsm™ command audit functions, at many times the speed. With HSM FastAudit-MediaControls you can be proactive and audit your HSM Migration and Backup tapes as you see fit. It works outside the HSM environment to correct the errors it finds and has documented bench speeds from 5 to over 180 times faster than the standard HSM Command audit mediacontrols. Tape Audit correlates entries in the tape management catalog with ICF catalog status. Successful tape management depends sensitively on the correct correlation between tape management catalog information and ICF catalog information. This high performance audit makes reconciliation fast and painless. Contact us for more information.
