OMEGAMON Performance Management Suite V5.5
Monitoring support for z14 and latest subsystem levels
�Move forward with confidence to latest hardware and software levels through day one support and monitoring coverage of new latest technologies such as RoCE networks adapters and CICS Asynchronous API
Lower cost of business-critical IT operation management
�Reduction in the amount of time and resources dedicated in a typical deployment coupled with targeted CPU performance improvements in key components such as in OMEGAMON for IMS Application Trace Facility
Reduce risk of undetected blind spots within monitoring environment
�Increased confidence that all monitored systems have been detected during deployment and configured correctly through updated deployment tools
Increased agility through delivering the right data to the right user
�Work more efficiently with improvements to the Enhanced 3270UI to ensure that that zSMEs never need to open up a different UI to do their day to day tasks

OMEGAMON Performance Management Suite V5.5
Reduced Deployment Time, Reduced Errors
Internal testing found time savings from over 35% in deploying OMEGAMON V5.5.0 releases over V5.3.0
by using updated PARMGEN utilities
Errors in deployment reduced though auto-discovery versus manual completion of values
Streamlined Architecture
Elimination of older non-strategic UIs and utilities can remove up to 6 monitoring address spaces per LPAR
Enhanced 3270UI provides users with single integrated view of their Z systems. Less time switching between
tools
CPU Improvements
Highly focused “smart” zIIP offloading of key functions makes most efficient use your zIIP investment
Targeted performance improvements in key components such as in OMEGAMON for IMS
Application Trace Facility demonstrating 12-18% reductions in CPU usage over previous release
Updates Driven By Client Feedback
Improved monitoring support for plex-wide resources and new resources led through
customer interaction within extensive
feedback sessions and over 25 significant RFEs implemented across the suite
Simplified, Faster Deployment
Reduced overhead and time to deploy OMEGAMON runtime environment:
• Fewer address spaces
• Fewer parameters to configure
• Leverage z/OS DLA to discover online resources and auto-populate configuration parameters
• Improved utilities to assist with configuration management
Basic versus Advanced Parameters
Most clients can configure their monitoring RTE using a subset
of parameters. Advanced settings available, if needed.
Together with a 20% reduction in parameters, only 10% of
remaining parameters now need to be reviewed (most of which
can be auto-discovered).
Faster configuration using z/OS DLA
Allow users to exploit functions of the DLA to discover online subsystems and resources
and automatically include these in the PARMGEN RTE configuration user profiles
Reduces complexity, time-to-value. More accurate configuration decks.

NEW! IBM Z APM Connect v5.5
IBM Z Application Performance Management Connect enables visibility of mainframe applications components in multiple vendors APM dashboards. There are two key areas of capability;
•Resource Monitoring (no change to v5.4)
• Resolve application slow downs / outages faster with visibility z/OS subsystem health information in APM dashboard.
• Consistency of data between Applications teams using APM dashboard and mainframe teams using OMEGAMON tooling
• Health information at the subsystem level for most z/OS subsystems collected via OMEGAMON installed on z/OS
• Supported with IBM Cloud APM only in V5.5
•Transaction Tracking (new capability in v5.5)
• View of full end-to-end transactions from mobile to mainframe in a single dashboard for faster application issue isolation, identification of mainframe components in specific applications, and reduction of false-positives issues for zSMEs
• Allows customers to also track the performance and availability of individual transactions as they flow through the various z/OS subsystems.
• V5.5 support is centered around transactions entering CICS (via MQ, HTTP and SOAP) and flowing through Db2 and IMS DB.
• The data is captured directly and does not rely on OMEGAMON and hence it can support customers running competitive monitoring solns (BMC/CA/ASG etc).
• Supported with AppDynamics APM only in V5.5
