From the Vendor

 

FDRABR is a suite of powerful, flexible and high-performance z/OS Storage Management tools, which provide a range of features including: 

  • Managed volume and incremental backup (FDRINC) - a high-performance, intelligent and automated backup system, which allows you to create daily backups of all your z/OS DASD without having to back up every data set every day.
  • Managed Application backup (FDRAPPL)  - a managed, automated, and flexible system designed to backup data sets belonging to a single application, regardless of where those data sets reside.
  • Data migration and space management (FDRARC) - allows you to regain control of the consumption of your z/OS DASD space by moving inactive data sets to a less costly medium, such as high-capacity tape, a VTS, or to a compressed format on another disk
  • z/OS Storage Reporting (FDREPORT) - a flexible, high-performance yet easy-to-use storage management reporting tool, which can gather information from a wide variety of z/OS sources, including the VTOC, VVDS, Catalog, ABR and HSM control files, and also the DFSMSrmm and CA-1 tape management systems. 

Each of the modules within the FDRABR suite can be licensed separately to allow you to target a specific need.

Note: FDR is a prerequisite for any FDRABR licensing.
