Description

Panvalet is a mainframe library management solution from Broadcom that centralizes the storage and control of source code, Job Control Language (JCL), object files, and card-image data files. The platform is designed to simplify application development and reduce the operational complexity associated with maintaining enterprise business applications. Panvalet provides a centralized repository on direct access storage devices (DASD), allowing organizations to improve visibility and control across their programming environments. Development teams can use the platform to establish and maintain secure control libraries for source programs and operational data assets. Panvalet delivers immediate access to application components, helping teams streamline maintenance, processing, and development activities. The system also strengthens data protection by reducing the risk of accidental loss, theft, disaster-related damage, and unauthorized access to critical program assets. By automating manual and resource-intensive processes, Panvalet improves staff productivity and operational efficiency within mainframe environments. The platform supports more reliable change management and enhances machine performance through centralized management capabilities. Broadcom also provides training, integration resources, support services, and professional consulting to help organizations maximize the value of their Panvalet implementation. Built for enterprise mainframe operations, Panvalet helps organizations modernize development workflows while maintaining strong control over critical application assets.

Description

Z/XDC offers developers an interactive and source-level debugging experience for mainframe programs within any z/OS environment, enabling them to navigate through live code, monitor variables in real-time, and address issues more swiftly than conventional techniques allow. By eliminating the guesswork inherent in traditional debugging, it grants comprehensive, real-time insight into program execution and introduces advanced debugging features to mainframe development. With Z/XDC, developers can significantly cut down on debugging durations, transforming a process that typically takes days into one that can be accomplished in hours, allowing them to test hypotheses instantly without the need for lengthy recompilation, make spontaneous modifications, run “what if” scenarios, correct problems, and validate solutions efficiently. Among its capabilities, Z/XDC allows for precise line-by-line stepping through code, instant code alterations, flag adjustments, modifications of data fields and registers, control over the Program Status Word (PSW), and the ability to load or delete modules, as well as manage memory with GETMAINs and FREEMAINs, and post Event Control Blocks. Additionally, it ensures source-level visibility, allowing developers to view the code as initially written, automatically load source image maps from ADATA, and access a variety of other helpful features, making it an indispensable tool for modern mainframe programming. This integration of advanced debugging functionalities enhances overall productivity and streamlines the development workflow for programmers working in mainframe environments.
