Robot HA

High availability solution for IBM i, which allows you to replicate your important data and keep the business running, even when your production environment decreases.

Maintain Business Continuity:

Maximize Uptime:

Use your secondary system to perform nightly backups, queries, and planned maintenance activities without impacting your production system.

Refine Data Replication

Replicate all of production or only select libraries and programs. Your data is available on your target server instantly./p>

The thing that impressed me the most about Robot HA was testing the role swap. All the ethernet lines, TCP/IP routes, and servers came over, and all of the ODBC traffic was pointing in the right direction. I was just amazed.

Key Features for Robot HA:

Robot_HA_Funcionalidad1
Using remote journaling and a high-speed apply routine, Robot HA can replicate 188 million journal transactions per hour across any distance—physical or virtual—and apply the data the moment it is received, which means that your hot backup is always a real-time copy of production.
Robot_HA_Funcionalidad2
Robot HA makes it easy for you to test using different role swap scenarios to verify that replication is done correctly. Even test while users are still using production to minimize business disruption. The process of switching to your on-premise or cloud backup system is automated, so you can achieve your mandated recovery time objective (RTO) when disaster strikes.
Robot_HA_Funcionalidad3
Robot HA automatically monitors all aspects of replication—including replication tasks in error, excessive transport or apply lags, user-defined conditions, and more—and sends notification for any issues that need attention, so you can quickly confirm that your hot backup system is ready for a role swap.

Robot_HA_Funcionalidad4
Robot HA is self-healing. It continuously audits and repairs objects and integrated file system (IFS) directories to ensure they match production. This synchronization process ensures that your data is up to date on the hot backup system and frees up your operators to focus on more important tasks.
Robot_HA_Funcionalidad5
With Robot HA’s Robot GUIDE, you can have Robot HA up and running in a matter of minutes. All you have to do is enter the license code to initiate deployment and identify the backup source system in order to secure business continuity for your organization. The appropriate journals, subsystems, and transport layer are created automatically, minimizing the manual efforts involved in implementation. Additionally, this IBM i high availability solution can be adjusted from the default settings, allowing you to refine the way it runs in your environment.

Data Replication Done Your Way:

La alta disponibilidad de IBM i no tiene que ser “todo o nada”. Ya sea que se trate de todos sus datos de usuario y aplicaciones o solo algunas bibliotecas, con Robot HA usted decide qué replicar.
