1.1.4 Support for a wide range of systems

JP1/AJS3 runs under Windows and under all UNIX operating systems. The integrated user interface enables transparent operation whatever system you are using. By linking JP1/AJS3 with other products in the JP1 series, you can manage jobs in a multi-platform environment that may include a mainframe.

The following figure shows an example of using JP1/AJS3 in a multi-platform environment.

You can build your system in a flexible way, geared to the size of the applications. For example, you can build a small-scale system in which only one host is used to define and execute jobs, or you can build a large-scale system in which job execution is distributed across dozens of hosts.

JP1/AJS3 can be linked with the JP1 series and with other programs. JP1/AJS3's flexible scheduling and integrated monitoring functions can be utilized in running other programs by defining the external processing as part of the JP1/AJS3 processing.

Execution status can also be managed from a system management program that is linked to JP1/AJS3, such as JP1/IM or HP NNM.
