The McMaster Operations group looks after most of the process ("batch") scheduling for all PeopleSoft streams at McMaster University. With limited funding available for workload automation software (such as BMC Control-M), jobs sets, jobs, processes and queries are scheduled or run manually. The methodology used for administering these tasks will be discussed. The Operations group also uses Phire Architect to implement changes in stages from Development all the way into Production. Processes are monitored, not only using Process Monitor, but by making use of tools such as Splunk (log aggregator) and Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c. These tools and dashboards will be described in some detail.
