Developing True Business Continuance in Legacy System Environments

In today’s enterprise environments, implementing storage solutions that ensure true business continuance presents a major challenge. With many corporations continuing to rely on their legacy systems, business
continuity/disaster recovery (BC/DR) plans must overcome the age-old problem of keeping data secure, despite the fact that closed systems and mainframes remain an inextricable part of the evolving information infrastructure.

Operating System Concepts

The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is the heart of any computer, but the operating system is the brain. Unfortunately, understanding exactly how these things really work can be difficult, because it’s fairly hard to “play” with the operating system that you are actually using. You can do quite a bit with sophisticated debuggers, but eventually you run into confusion and difficulty.

Building a Partnering Measurement System

Sitting in Perry’s Los Angeles office was a humbling experience. The mahogany walls, teak boardroom table and leather-bound engineering manuals made me feel like I was on a Hollywood movie set. But I felt right at home when I walked up to the white board and started doing the math. Marker in hand, I asked Perry a series of questions aimed at quantifying the cost of the delays in the Smith project.

System Resource Solutions

Hi, Carey

Thank you for the helpful suggestions about my problems with too little memory. I have a couple more questions for you…….

A few months ago I added 64MB to boost my computer’s memory to 96MB RAM. Looking at Performance Stats today I find that System Resources are 53% free. While that may have helped in improved performance (mostly faster), it
hasn’t helped any with the problem I have re the C: drive. Today I have 1.96GB capacity and 222MB free there. This is actually up a little ~ most of the time I find that I have about 5% to work with..

So, the first question for the day is how do I eliminate this problem? I have tried removing unused programs in the past and most of the time wound up with more problems, because some bit of information that was used by another program got taken out.

Next question: how can I tell what not to eliminate?

Hoping you can help.
