Control-M is a GUI application that enables you to define and schedule your production, which Control-M uses to control job processing and handling. You can monitor your production, and intervene when necessary. Control-M enables you to do the following:
Define job flows: In the Planning domain, you can create job processing definitions and other needed entities. After job processing definitions have been defined for your jobs, you can perform several tasks to transition your definitions to production in the Planning domain. As part of this transition, you can automate the ordering of jobs each day.
Monitor active jobs: In the Monitoring domain, you can monitor and intervene in the processing of your production jobs in the Monitoring domain.
Simulate your plan on a future day: In the Forecast domain, you can determine the likely impact of potential changes to the system in the Forecast domain.
Use Control-M Tools: In the Tools domain, you can analyze areas that can be improved, such as resource allocation and workload balancing in the Tools domain or you can use the tools available from the ribbon.
