Introduction
"
AutoSys R11.3 Beta:
"
First Impressions;
"
Performance;
"
Things to watch for;
"
Bugs;
"
Enhancements Required.
119
Who Am I?
"
Freelance AutoSys Contractor.
"
Worked with AutoSys since 1998 as:
"
Field Technician/Troubleshooting/Support;
"
Architect;
"
Build Engineer;
"
Subject Matter Expert.
"
Built largest AutoSys environment known to CA.
120
First Impressions
"
Better than R11.0.
"
New agents.
"
Lots of new job types.
121
Performance
"
Seems stable running 1,200,000 jobs per day per
Instance.
"
EEM 8.4 seems to be faster than eIAM.
"
Mass JIL updates can still be very slow.
"
DBMaint and autobcp can also be very slow.
122
Things to watch for
"
Multiple versions of jobs.
"
chk_auto_up.
"
JIL syntax checker.
"
eTrust ! EEM migration.
"
