KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 29 -- Phoenix Software International Inc, a systems software development company has announced the general availability of JES3plus V1R1, a derivative work based on IBM’s z/OS® JES3.
This release integrates SPOOL I/O performance enhancements made available to JES3plus customers through continuous delivery earlier this year.
According to a statement, this is the first release of the JES3 technology to contain enhancements since early 2015 and coincides with z/OS 2.5, the last release of z/OS to include JES3.
“We knew early on that enhancing JES3plus to use the latest I/O techniques would be a priority,” said Chief Technology Officer at Phoenix Software International, Ed Jaffe.
“Much of the credit for the smooth rollout of this new, enhanced JES3plus release goes to our ISV partners and Early Test participants whose eager participation and incredible patience contributed greatly to this successful launch.”
JES3plus V1R1 supports two newer channel programming techniques to improve performance.
It is ACKD – channel programmes with a shortened prefix that can process an entire track instead of one record at a time; and zHPF – channel programmes that leverage the z/Architecture fibre-channel-extensions (FCX) facility to transfer the entire channel programme to the device for processing rather than having CCWs transferred as they are encountered.
Phoenix Software’s JES3plus Customer Advisory Council is actively helping to prioritise the product’s enhancement roadmap, so customers should expect to see additional enhancements delivered in 2022 via continuous delivery.
Phoenix Software has refreshed its product line this month. Product downloads are available to customers via the Phoenix Software International Support portal.
