absCompress can compress entire output queues or selected spool files from output queues. Spool files to compress can be selected by JOB, user, time and date, message queue and more. Entire output queues or only specific spool files can be “reprinted” from the compressed file.
absCompress comes shipped with industry standard and government approved AES encryption. With iSeries encryption, your iSeries data is secured for file transfer, physical transport and storage. We offer 3 levels of iSeries encryption up to 256 bit. Any iSeries data can be encrypted (LIB, SAVF, PF, etc.) through absCompress. All the functionality is supplied to compress and encrypt directly to tape.

Users enter a string known as a passphrase to encrypt data. Optionally the absCompress Keyvault feature can be used to assign a user friendly keyname to a passphrase. This feature provides administrators the ability to distribute the keyname to users without divulging the passphrase to unauthorized users. Because all absCompress functions, including encryption, can be invoked via command it allows data to be encrypted without using the passphrase in the command string. The keyname can only encrypt data; the original passphrase used to create the keyname is needed to decrypt/decompress the data.

An optional Windows component called absCrypt is also available. absCrypt extends your capabilities of encrypting your iSeries data by enabling it to be decrypted your PC or windows server. You can use absCrypt to decrypt the iSeries file and view it or store it on your PC or Windows Server. absCrypt also allows you to encrypt Windows files and securely transfer them to your iSeries. Simply compress any file using a windows compression tool (i.e. WINZIP) and use absCrypt to encrypt the .zip file you create. When you successfully transfer the file to your iSeries, you may then use absCompress to decrypt/decompress the file.
With this iSeries data compression module, files and objects can be compressed in an industry standard format to enable transfers to other platforms, like Windows or UNIX, and inflated with any Gzip.
The absCompress history console can track the details of all iSeries data compression or decompression procedures it performs. Start time, duration, original size, compressed size, and all detail of a command are recorded. Files and objects can be restored directly from the history console. Search criteria can be used to find specific logged procedures. Search criteria can be a combination of User, Command used, Start Date/Time, End Date/Time and more.
absCompress can be configured to compress for size or speed. You can select maximum iSeries data compression when the size of the compressed file is most important or less compression when time is of the essence.
Our Cross Platform Commander product seamlessly interfaces with absCompress to compress and decompress objects as part of a data transfer.
