    October 30, 2007 Alex Woodie

    Abacus Solutions, a purveyor of new and refurbished servers based in Atlanta, Georgia, this week announced plans to expand the range of System i-related technical services that it performs on its clients servers.

    Abacus sells a range of new and used servers, including System i, p, and x gear from IBM, servers from Sun and HP, and storage from EMC, Hitachi, NetApp, LeftHand Networks, and Pillar Data Systems. It also sells software products from various vendors, and provides a range of technical services.

    On Sunday, Abacus announced the expansion of the technical services it provides around the System i platform. Now, the company offers a full array of services, including; migrations and operating system upgrades; PTFs; system consolidation; implementation of independent auxiliary storage pool (iASP) logical partitioning (LPAR), and i5/OS clustering; disaster recovery planning and high availability; disk arm calculation; server maintenance; security assessments; and performance tuning.

    Patrick Hiller, CEO of Abacus Solution, says the company is committed to providing objective solutions. “Our certified engineers have the proven track record to match the right iSeries services, equipment, budgets, and processes to meet an individual company’s needs,” he says.

    Get More Out of Your IBM i

    With soaring costs, operational data is more critical than ever. IBM shops need faster, easier ways to distribute IBM applications-based data to users more efficiently, no matter where they are.

    The Problem:

    For Users, IBM Data Can Be Difficult to Get To

    IBM Applications generate reports as spooled files, originally designed to be printed. Often those reports are packed together with so much data it makes them difficult to read. Add to that hardcopy is a pain to distribute. User-friendly formats like Excel and PDF are better, offering sorting, searching, and easy portability but getting IBM reports into these formats can be tricky without the right tools.

    The Solution:

    IBM i Reports can easily be converted to easy to read and share formats like Excel and PDF and Delivered by Email

    Converting IBM i, iSeries, and AS400 reports into Excel and PDF is now a lot easier with SpoolFlex software by DRV Tech.  If you or your users are still doing this manually, think how much time is wasted dragging and reformatting to make a report readable. How much time would be saved if they were automatically formatted correctly and delivered to one or multiple recipients.

    SpoolFlex converts spooled files to Excel and PDF, automatically emailing them, and saving copies to network shared folders. SpoolFlex converts complex reports to Excel, removing unwanted headers, splitting large reports out for individual recipients, and delivering to users whether they are at the office or working from home.

    Watch our 2-minute video and see DRV’s powerful SpoolFlex software can solve your file conversion challenges.
