  • IBM i 7.4 – TR10 Enhancements
    on 2024-05-08 at 06:58

    With this enhancement, PowerHA adds integration with IBM Spectrum Virtualize asynchronous policy-based replication. Existing monitored resources in the administrative domain that previously monitored all attributes for printer device descriptions will automatically begin monitoring the new attributes after all nodes are updated to a PowerHA version supporting the new attributes.

  • IBM Sharpens Its Edge With “Bonnell” Entry Power10 System
    by Timothy Prickett Morgan on 2024-05-08 at 04:49

    Back in February 2017, Big Blue announced what we called the Power S812 Mini, which was a version of the Linux-only Power S812L single-socket Power8 machine that had been allowed to run IBM i and that has a single 3.03 GHz core activated and 64 GB of main memory; it would be rated at somewhere just under 10,000 CPWs. IBM never did announce a Power S912 super-entry machine based on the Power9, but it did extend the life of the Power S812 until June 2020. When the entry and midrange Power10 machines were launched in July 2022, there was no Power S1012 Mini and once again the Power S1014 machine, which we detailed here, was the smallest – meaning least capacious in terms of computing and storage – system that customers could buy to run IBM i workloads.

  • Lost Data – The Silent Killer
    by Richard Dolewski on 2024-05-08 at 04:08

    DATA is the BACKBONE of today’s organization. INFORMATION is the most valuable asset of the CORPORATION. When data is lost, held RANSOM, or simply unavailable, it negatively affects (and potentially halts) all desired business outcomes. Today’s dynamic business environments are based on a seamless flow of information. Organizations have invested in IT because they rely on technology to conduct business to sustain profitability. Systems of record that previously functioned in the background, include self-service and real-time connections, with endless application endpoints spanning across numerous clouds. Transaction flow of data now originates and is completed across numerous cloud interactions vs … The post Lost Data – The Silent Killer appeared first on IT Jungle.
