Announcing Operations Sentinel 18.0

Operations Sentinel 18.0 is now generally available to all ClearPath Forward® clients!

The updates and enhancements included in the latest release of our feature-rich, end-to-end data center management tool make it easier to automate, consolidate, access, monitor, and manage heterogeneous systems and applications.

Plus, you’ll have new ways to facilitate anytime, anywhere remote operations, anticipate and address abnormal conditions, and reduce the resources dedicated to operations and support activities.

And when it comes to Operations Sentinel 18.0, you can do all this and much more thanks to the release’s key new features:

• Lock ADBM database file: With the ability to lock each individual ADBM database file (bld file),
  you’ll prevent the unwanted modifications that could occur when users edit the same file.
• Remote registry read elimination: You can establish a secure communication between the Operations Sentinel Workstation components and the Operations Sentinel Server, enabling you
  to transfer any necessary data without using remote registry reads.
• Install location flexibility: You’re now free to set the defined install path for the Operations Sentinel output folder.
• Log Viewer auto-refresh: Using this feature, you can set an interval for the logs in the Log Viewer to be automatically refreshed, eliminating the need for frequent, manual refreshes.
• Log file scrolling: When moving the horizontal scrollbar to the extreme right of the screen and then scrolling up, the bar will no longer reset to the extreme left of the screen, making it much easier to view and analyze large log files.
• ClearPath® OS 2200 Software Series configuration wizard: With this enhanced version of the ClearPath OS 2200 Software Series configuration wizard, your admins can set up, add, or modify configurations automatically from a single application, eliminating the need to manually manage configurations across multiple wizards.
• SAIL-based configuration wizard for Dorado x300, x400, and x500 systems: Your admins are now able to set up new ClearPath Forward Dorado x300, x400, and x500 configurations – and modify existing ones – using a new SAIL-based application that eliminates manual effort, saves time, and prevents errors.
