Lakeview to Add Continuous Data Protection to MIMIX
by Alex Woodie

Lakeview Technology last week unveiled plans to add continuous data protection (CDP) technology to its MIMIX ha1 line of high availability software for iSeries servers. CDP is used to safeguard the accidental or intentional deletion or corruption of important files by taking periodic snapshots of the files, which can be later restored by the user. The new CDP capabilities will be available in its MIMIX ha1 line sometime next month, Lakeview says. READ MORE >

Halcyon Goes Graphical with Disk Space Manager
by Alex Woodie

Keeping an eye on disk space usage is one of the important activities that occupies the time of iSeries administrators. For one thing, DASD is very expensive on the iSeries, so it shouldn't be wasted, just on principle. And if usage should ever get close to capacity, it could really slow down application performance. Luckily, there are all kinds of tools to help administrators track disk space, including Disk Space Manager version 4.0, which was just released by Halcyon Software. READ MORE >

Reader Feedback and Insights

CORRECTION: The article "Proginet Adds OS/400 Support to File Transfer Suite" contained two errors. The company delivered a Java-based file transfer product for OS/400 in 2002, not in 2006, as the article originally stated. The encryption capabilities of the Internet Server component of Proginet's CyberFusion Integrated Suite were also misstated. IT Jungle regrets the errors.
