I want Advice on Using Adabas Utilities on Mainframes

Hi all,

I am getting started with Adabas on mainframes & I want help understanding how to use the built-in utilities such as ADAREP, ADAFRM & ADACMP in real-world scenarios. I have gone through the official docs but I am more interested in how experienced users apply these tools in day-to-day operations.

How often do you run reports such as ADAREP in your workflow? Do you follow any Z` scheduling or automation routines for regular database maintenance? Also, are there any common mistakes or issues to avoid when working with these tools during active system hours?

I took a Ruby On Rails course & it is interesting seeing how different the ecosystem is compared to mainframe environments. I am trying to broaden my understanding across both old and new tech.

I Appreciate any tips or suggestions. I want to hear how you approach these tasks in your own setup.

Thank you.:slight_smile:
