Rocket TMON PA for z/OS

The architecture of Rocket TMON PA for z/OS is designed for efficient data collection, processing, and analysis within a z/OS environment. The core components include the TMON for z/OS address space, the data collection and analysis engine, and the ASG Perfman Analyst GUI. The TMON for z/OS address space is the primary component that runs on the z/OS system.

It is responsible for collecting performance data from various sources, including CICS, DB2, and the z/OS operating system. The data collection and analysis engine processes the collected data, performs calculations, and generates performance metrics. This engine uses VSAM datasets and potentially other database systems for storing performance data.

The ASG Perfman Analyst GUI provides a Windows-based interface for in-depth analysis and reporting. The PERFMAN Portal GUI provides a web-based interface for accessing performance data and dashboards. Communication between components occurs via inter-process communication (IPC) and network protocols, primarily TCP/IP.

The system supports integration with other systems through APIs, allowing for centralized monitoring and management. The product supports user authentication through user IDs and passwords, with access control managed via user roles and permissions. The system's design ensures scalability and high availability, enabling organizations to monitor and manage their z/OS environments effectively.
