CA Supports IBM Mainframe with Unicenter Management System
Computer Associates and IBM yesterday unveiled a series ofproduct, pricing, and services initiatives designed to
promote CA's enterprise management architecture on IBM's
S/390 mainframe technology.
Unicenter TNG for OS/390 is compatible with other Unicenter
TNG implementations, such as those for Unix and Windows NT.
CA's Unicenter TNG will offer support for the following
products on the OS/390 platform: OS/390 base system
management; CICS; OS/390 Unix Services; CA-IDMS; CA-Datacom;
DB2; MQSeries; Lotus Notes/Domino; SAP R3; PeopleSoft; Baan;
Oracle; and Novell Netware for OS/390.
CA's Unicenter TNG for OS/390 helps better position the
mainframe operating system in distributed, Web-enabled
environments, CA executives say. "It's about bringing new
workloads onto the S/390, not just preserving legacy
applications," says CA chairman and CEO Charles Wang.
CA will also collaborate with IBM to support the S/390
Multiprise Server announced in September. Unicenter TNG on
the Multiprise 3000 starts at $6,000 per month for leased
licensing, ongoing maintenance, and technical support. CA's
global professional services division is also working more
closely with IBM Multiprise 3000 customers through the
OS/390 Enterprise Growth Option, which includes software
asset management service; OS/390 migration; and several
maintenance and training services.
