Rocket® SmartScope™

Optimize development and performance for your mainframe applications

A robust fault diagnosis and dump management solution


SmartScope supports application availability in z/OS® environments by automating the complex, error-prone processes of managing dumps and analyzing, diagnosing, and resolving batch and online application and system failures, or abends.

SmartScope uses dumps as input and provides an online, interactive viewing facility that is easy to understand and illustrates the cause of failure. In most cases SmartScope can display the actual failing statement within the application’s source code. With this information, and Rocket SmartScope’s notification capabilities, the user is able to quickly identify and resolve the cause of a program error.
