"The Best Purge and Archive Utility" just keeps getting better and better...

 

ARCTOOLS/400™ Version 7.1 General Release

Go… FASTER!  Without an Upgrade!!!

Includes Enhanced Ease-of-use, Data Selection Capabilities, Date Calculation Features

November 2005

DCSoftware, Inc. is proud to announce the general availability of ARCTOOLS/400™ v7.1. This new version of ARCTOOLS adds tremendous capabilities to this revolutionary data archiving utility. ARCTOOLS allows AS/400 and iSeries shops to optimize their disk utilization - moving rarely accessed data 'out of the way', thus speeding up production systems while still making it easily available to production reports and inquiries.

Version 7.1 includes the following new features 

bullet

Numerous ease-of-use enhancements, including a multi-purge submit feature for RulesWizard and JoinWizard, improved screen navigation, and job scheduling features

Save Time and Money!

Many AS/400 shops don't purge for several reasons, such as the purge programs don't exist and there is no time to write them. The biggest reason shops don't archive is because the users won't let them. This is due to the need to see historical information on various reports and inquiries. With ARCTOOLS, historical data can be archived out of the way of the production environment and easily made visible to those few programs where it's really needed.

With ARCTOOLS, shops can easily optimize their production data libraries, speed up processing, cut batch windows, and postpone or even eliminate expensive hardware upgrades!
