IBM OS/2 First Failure Support Technology/2 (FFST/2) provides Reliability, Accountability and Serviceability (RAS) functions. In the event of an error, FFST/2 can capture and recording of error data and reporting of the error. Generic alerts are generated, formatted in Network Management Vector Transport (NMVT) format and then sent to a management system.

It allows network administrators to monitor and respond over the network to errors that occur on OS/2 systems.

Products

Shipped with FFST/2 component:

  • IBM Extended Services for OS/2 1.0
  • IBM OS/2 LAN Server 2.0
  • IBM FASTService Release 2 for OS/2
  • IBM Communications Manager/2 Version 1.0
  • IBM DATABASE 2 for OS/2 1.0
  • IBM OS/2 Warp Connect
  • IBM OS/2 Warp Version 4

Configuration

You can enable FFST by putting on the Config.sys: 

RUN=C:\OS2\EPW.EXE MAXAPLDUMP=75
