GFS/TQS - Tape
Quality System

Quality Management for z/OS Tape Libraries
GFS/TQS certifies files and tapes, being able to verify data integrity. It
allows the identification of tapes that have reached the usage limit, provides
periodic re-tensioning, and automates the replacement process of old tapes,
ensuring reliability for long term data storage.
In addition, GFS/TQS allows the
monitoring of VSM®
physical volume usage (MVCs) which are not recognized by the z/OS operating
system.
By offering reading and authenticity certification, GFS/TQS also helps to
promote the adherence of z/OS tape library infrastructure to various compliance
requirements, such as those required by Basel II, Sarbanes-Oxley, ITIL, among
others.
Reading Certification:
Executes routines to certify file
reading, demonstrating its readability
Integrity Certification:
Produces an authentication that works like an electronic "fingerprint" of the
file, representing the uniqueness of its content. Any difference when comparing
authentication versions produced at different moments shows that the file has
been accidentally or intentionally changed.
