Welcome to the IBM Z Workload Scheduler documentation, where you can find information about how to install, maintain, and use the product. The documentation has been updated for version 10.2 (with APAR PH68599).
Read the following information to understand General-use Programming Interface and Associated Guidance Information. It describes exits that are called by IBM Z Workload Scheduler. Your own programs can use the information passed by the exits to perform a variety of functions.
This section contains links to the IBM® Workload Scheduler Download Documents, System Requirements, and Release Notes.
This section contains links to the PDF versions of all the publications provided in IBM Documentation for IBM Workload Automation.
Welcome to the IBM® Workload Scheduler documentation, where you can find information about how to install, maintain, and use IBM Workload Scheduler. The documentation has been updated for IBM Workload Scheduler Version 10.2.7.
For the latest information about a Dynamic Workload Console fix pack, see the appropriate Readme File.
To customize the IBM Z Workload Scheduler functions you must set the initialization statements, which determine the tasks that IBM Z Workload Scheduler starts, how IBM Z Workload Scheduler processes work, and the functions that you can use.
This topic describes related initialization statements and parameters. Use this information to identify the parameters to consider when implementing particular functions, and to evaluate the effect on other processes that a function might have.
Learn how to use IBM Z Workload Scheduler security features to protect IBM Z Workload Scheduler functions and data.
As an alternative to creating user exits manually, you can create, edit, compile, and link-edit a number of user exits through the User Exits Workbench tool. The tool enables you to customize your user exits by using the IBM z/OS Metal C language (for details about this language, see the IBM z/OS Metal C Programming Guide and Reference).
You can use the IBM Z Workload Scheduler to provide a single, consistent, control point for submitting and tracking the workload on any operating environment. IBM Z Workload Scheduler provides open interfaces to enable you to integrate the planning, scheduling, and control of units of work such as online transactions, file transfers, or batch processing in any operating environment that can establish communication with z/OS.
This topic describes how you can report events to IBM Z Workload Scheduler. It also contains General-use Programming Interface and Associated Guidance Information.
You can plan when and how your workload runs and manage it as part of a plan.
