BMC Performance Assurance Suite for Mainframes: Capacity Management and the CDB

Overview A successful capacity management strategy puts the resources in place to deliver just-in-time support of business requirements. Integral to that strategy is the development of a capacity plan that is based on the data from a Capacity Management Database (CDB). According to the IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL), the CDB is the cornerstone of a successful capacity management process when it operates as a subset of a Configuration Management DataBase (CMDB). This white paper illustrates how solutions in the BMC Performance Assurance Suite for Mainframes fulfill the ITIL capacity management best practices. The paper addresses the outputs of the CDB and how they are used in a business solution scenario.
