Control-M Batch Impact Manager

Batch Impact Manager is a Control‑M Add-on that lets you monitor critical batch services and intervene if delays or problems are detected or anticipated.

Every time a job executes, Control-M collects statistics that it uses to calculate the average run time for that job. This average run time becomes the expected run time for the job. When a job runs, and that job is defined in a business service, Batch Impact Manager compares its actual run time to its average run time from past executions. Based on this comparison, Batch Impact Manager calculates if the business service, is expected to finish on time.

Batch Impact Manager enables you to do the following:

• Create a BIM service, as described in BIM Service Definition.
• Analyze run time statistics to predict the end time of defined job using one of the following methods:
  • Basic Statistics collection
  • Periodic Statistics definition
• Monitor services, as described in Service Monitor and Business Service Analysis Viewpoint.
