VitalSigns for Network Automation & Control™ | VNAC
Easy mainframe network automation with z/OS REXX scripting. VNAC is a lightweight and affordable legacy network and system monitor replacement, complete with browser-based automation manager.
Upgrade your Legacy z/OS Automation Tool and Save!
VNAC is a streamlined, cost-saving alternative to the legacy network automation and monitoring software most shops still rely on. Many of these products continue to be maintained but not improved with new features. In contrast, VNAC remains in active development by the SDS team.
VNAC and its companion product, VitalSigns for IP™ (VIP), provide a full-spectrum tool set for automating, monitoring, and troubleshooting SNA applications, z/OS Communications Server, and mainframe TCP/IP networks.
SDS’s VitalSigns replacement program will save big money over your legacy network management products.
With VNAC, you have the option to run components off the mainframe to conserve CPU cycles and see as much as 60% reduction in costs. Plus, make the most of your existing z/OS experts by saving 100s of labor hours with VNAC’s automation capabilities.

Automation
Automate any message (system, application, or network) that goes to the system console. Automate network alerts by interfacing VNAC with VIP or any other IP monitor.
Cost Savings
VNAC costs much less than competing z/OS network automation products. Plus, VNAC generates significant MLC cost savings and conserves valuable z/OS resources. For even greater savings, consider pairing VNAC with VIP to replace your expensive, legacy network products.
