Systemware JHS, or Job History System, captures and manages mainframe job-oriented SYSLOG and SYSOUT for immediate access and secure, compliant storage. First released in 1983 for z/OS, JHS is a mature and robust solution that can run standalone, and is also integrated with Content Cloud, Systemware’s intelligent content services platform. In addition, JHS can be deployed as a managed service, providing immediate availability and the ease of access using a browser without the need for costly additional on-premise infrastructure.

What is SYSLOG and SYSOUT?

Mainframes typically run programs called jobs, and jobs create output in the form of logs, reports, messages, statuses, and even multimedia. Managing this job output manually can be cumbersome and time consuming – and costly, especially when printing to paper. JHS can collect this output, logically organize it for immediate access and delivery, and securely store it as long as necessary. JHS also regularly scans job messages to identify warnings and errors for quick response.

Systemware Integration

Many JHS customers do not benefit from the modern content services platform offered by Systemware. However, JHS is fully integrated with the Systemware platform, providing the full output management capabilities of JHS, but through a modern browser-based UI that can be implemented on any infrastructure. JHS and Systemware content services together can provide content management for your entire enterprise ecosystem, from mainframe to the public cloud and everywhere in between, while delivering a user experience centered around simplicity and access.
