Product Overview

Manage:DASD, a z/OS-based solution, provided dataset backup, archive, and restore capabilities, similar to DFSMShsm and CA Disk. While specific architectural details are unavailable due to its unsupported status, it likely consisted of components for data movement, metadata management, and scheduling. It automated storage management tasks, optimizing storage utilization and reducing the risk of data loss.

However, Manage:DASD is no longer supported. When planning a migration, consider alternatives like DFSMShsm, CA Disk, IBM Cloud Object Storage, or Veritas NetBackup. The architecture of the replacement solution should align with your organization's needs.

Evaluate the components for data movement, metadata management, and scheduling. Ensure the new solution supports the necessary protocols for communication between components. Consider solutions that offer a modular architecture for scalability and flexibility.

Modern solutions often leverage distributed architectures and cloud-based storage for enhanced performance and resilience. Assess the database and storage mechanisms used by the replacement solution to ensure compatibility with your existing infrastructure.
