Workload Management Considerations

Work Load Management (WLM) is a component of the OS/390 operating system that provides facilities to define, implement, and monitor system performance against business goals. WLM allocates resources for processing work by using policies that you define, in order to better ensure that the performance and scalability of your applications meets your requirements.

When you configure Net.Data for use with ICAPI or GWAPI, either IBM Internet Connection Server or Lotus Domino Go Webserver let you use WLM to establish policies to manage your Net.Data workload. You can establish these policies by specifying application environments and WLM transaction classes for processing URL requests that match a given template.

An added advantage of using WLM is that you can make changes to the Net.Data initialization file (db2www.ini) and have them take effect without having to stop and restart the Web server, by using the WLM REFRESH or WLM QUIESCE commands.

For more information about WLM, refer to OS/390 MVS Planning: Workload Management, GC28-1761.
