AIX Webcast: AIX Business Resiliency and Disaster Recovery
Speaker: Ferenc Gyurcsan, Vision Solutions
Business resiliency has been on the minds of leaders of businesses from small to enterprise. Be it driven by regulatory compliance requirements, by an organization’s board, or at times by the need to deliver on more stringent service level agreements during planned and unplanned downtime in a globalized business environment, business resiliency and associated risk management strategies for mission-critical IBM AIX systems have become a mandate for IT departments in recent years. This evolving requirement led to the need for solutions beyond traditional tape-based backup and disaster recovery, for ones that can deliver measurable financial impact and value to the business. Join us for a webcast on business resiliency and disaster recovery best practices on the AIX platform. The presenter, Ferenc Gyurcsan, COMMON’s subject matter expert for AIX, will provide an overview of the business drivers and factors to be considered on the road of business resiliency, followed by a survey of high availability, disaster recovery and virtualization solutions currently available on the market for AIX, as they relate to business resiliency.

AIX Webcast: nmon and topas
Speaker: Nigel Griffiths, IBM
nmon has become popular with thousands of AIX systems administrators over the past 12 years. nmon provides for live performance monitoring, tuning, and records performance data in a single file, whose format can be used as the input in the automated Excel spreadsheet -- nmon Analyser -- and other web based graphing tools.
In this webcast we will cover nmon basics, new features, and discuss how nmon has changed from a personal project -- downloadable from the AIX Wiki -- to become part of AIX itself due to popular demand of AIX users.
