Make the most of your system resources by using this information to provide optimum system function, efficiency, and availability. Learn how to distribute and group system resources, plan backup and recovery situations, secure your system, manage multiple system, and analyze or troubleshoot any performance problems that might occur on your system. Backup and recovery This category contains information about how to plan a backup and recovery strategy and how to back up your system. It also includes information about the Backup, Recovery, and Media Services plug-in to System i® Navigator, information about recovering your system, and answers to some frequently asked questions about backup and recovery. Common Information Model The Common Information Model (CIM) is a standard that is developed by Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF). DMTF is a consortium of major hardware and software vendors (including IBM) that is a part of the Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) initiative. Disk management Use the information in this topic to effectively manage your disk units, disk pools, independent disk pools and find strategies to help you protect the data on your disk units. Journal management Journal management provides a means by which you can record the activity of objects on your system. When you use journal management, you create an object called a journal. The journal records the activities of the objects you specify in the form of journal entries. The journal writes the journal entries in another object called a journal receiver. Logical partitions With logical partitions, you can distribute resources within a single system to make it function as if it were two or more independent systems. Plan your next upgrade to include logical partitions. Management Central As part of System i Navigator, Management Central provides the technology that you need to simultaneously perform systems management tasks. Performance Monitoring and managing your system's performance is critical to ensure you are keeping pace with the changing demands of your business. System values System values are pieces of information that affect the system operating environment. System values are not objects on the system. Rather, system values contain control information for the operation of certain parts of the system. Time management Within the time management component of System i Navigator, you can work with the time zone and time adjustment functions. With these functions, you can choose a time zone for your system to use and adjust the system time. Work management Work management is an important building block within the i5/OS operating system.
