Help/Systems, developer of the Robot Automated Operations Solution for the System i, has announced the release of Robot/NETWORK 10, the newest version of its network control, monitoring, and management software. Robot/NETWORK 10 offers a new, easy-to-use graphical interface that allows users to consolidate operational events so they can monitor and manage their network of System i servers from a central location.
The Robot/NETWORK Explorer is the primary navigation tool for Robot/NETWORK 10. It displays the current network configuration as an expandable tree of hosts, nodes, products, packets, reports, and other system items, with menus and toolbars for fast access to network control options. New Robot/NETWORK wizards help users connect to hosts, configure nodes, and apply product updates and license codes. From the Explorer, users can distribute and manage both updates and license codes for all of the Help/Systems products on their systems.
For complete visual detail, the Robot/NETWORK map center allows users to customize their own graphical view (map) of the entire network, or any portion of it, to display both status traffic and network communication between hosts and nodes.
Users can display the Robot/NETWORK status center from either the Explorer or the map center to display and respond to host and node statuses quickly. Users can respond to statuses for the products on a system, a specific product and system, or across all systems and products. Users also can escalate status issues by sending a pager, text, or e-mail message using Robot/ALERT; issuing an SNMP trap; or calling a user defined program.
Robot/NETWORK interfaces directly with the other Robot products to provide complete, centralized control of all of the operational issues in the network. Using the graphical Robot/Schedule Explorer with Robot/NETWORK, users can monitor and manage the job schedules on any system in their network from their PC, making it easy to standardize and control their network job schedule. Robot/NETWORK also offers network-wide control of automated report management, message management, and system monitoring through its product master interface with Robot/Reports, Robot/Console, and Robot/Monitor.
Robot/NETWORK 10 works with i5/OS security to offer enhanced security for internal objects, including both predefined and user-defined security roles.
