  OpenVMS Products Overview

Diskeeper 7.1 For OpenVMS

Diskeeper is THE defragmenter for safety, reliability and performance. Without naming names, let us say that Diskeeper can be found in the TOP government offices, the biggest banks, the most sensitive research sites. In fact, Diskeeper can be found at most sites running OpenVMS.

I/O Express 4.0 For OpenVMS

Alpha processors are capable of handling thousands of disk I/O's per second, so it doesn't take a genius to figure out that disks are causing traffic jams with their pokey little 44-100 I/O's per second.

For less than the cost of a new disk, your Alpha (or VAX) could be handling an average of 600-800 disk I/O's per second. How? With I/O Express 4.0, the BRAND NEW, revolutionary data cacher from Executive Software: IO Express fully utilizes the Alpha 64-bit architechture, uses intelligent read-ahead caching, is completely safe and operates on VAX machines.

File Master For OpenVMS

If so, File Master is for you! With File Master, your files are visually arranged in directory trees. Now, you can view the contents of files without opening them, search a directory (or entire disk) for a key word or phrase, and sort files in more ways than File Manager ever dreamed of!

Frag Guard For OpenVMS

Frag Guard reduces or eliminates file fragmentation when new files are created and when existing files are extended. It does not defragment files; instead it helps prevent them from being created or extended in a fragmented state in the first place.

When a file is created or extended in a fragmented state, additional system resources (I/O and CPU) are needed to store the fragmented data on the disk. Separate I/O operations are needed to store each fragment of the file onto the disk. Thus, a file stored in ten fragmented pieces uses more system resources to store than a file stored in one contiguous piece.

Reducing fragmentation speeds up file creation and extension, since fewer fragments equals fewer I/Os to store them.
