      - IBM Workload Scheduler environment
        An IBM Workload Scheduler network consists of a set of linked workstations on which you perform job processing. A network is composed of one or more domains, each having a domain manager workstation acting as a management hub, and one or more agent workstations.
      - Planning the environment
        Typical installation scenarios for products and components.
        Distributed workload environment with static scheduling capabilities
        Configuration to run workload statically across your distributed network.
        Distributed workload environment with dynamic scheduling capabilities
        Use this configuration to run workload dynamically across your distributed network.
        Distributed workload environment with static and dynamic scheduling capabilities
        Use this configuration to run workload both statically and dynamically across your distributed network.
        End-to-end workload environment
        In an end-to-end workload environment (agent connected to the z/OS® system), you can define different types of configurations.
        Workload environment integrated with external systems
        Configuration to extend IBM Workload Scheduler capabilities for scheduling on external applications.
        Distributed-driven workload environment for z/OS®
        Configuration used when submitting from the IBM Workload Scheduler.
        Dockerized environment
        Use this configuration to implement a Dockerized environment.
      - Planning domains
        A IBM Workload Scheduler network contains at least one master domain manager that acts as a management hub for the product. Additional domains can be used to divide a widely-distributed network into locally-managed groups of workstations.
      - Workstation classes
        Workstations are organized into domains to make your network management easier and more efficient. However, the domain name is not one of the selection criteria when choosing where to run a job or job stream.
      - Time zone considerations
        Time zone support is an optional feature that is enabled by default.
    - Installation considerations
