The major features of Adabas Review include the following:
Supports multiple Adabas nuclei clustered under a single database ID, either in a single operating system image (Adabas Parallel Services) or under z/OS and IBM parallel sysplex, across multiple operating system images (Adabas Cluster Services).
Can monitor several databases (DBIDs) and provide reports for each.
Can be configured in a straight-forward, uniform, and consistent way under all targeted operating system platforms in a client/server environment.
Collects, reports, and controls data centrally. The hub is a true data collection point unencumbered by dependencies on internal operations and structures of the Adabas nucleus.
Provides unencumbered Adabas operation. The hub reduces overhead by eliminating the Review subtask from the Adabas address space, partition, or region.
