Situation Description

The Workload Manager (WLM) weight indicates the value for either the z/OS image on which the target TCP/IP stack is located or the specific server on the target stack based on the BASEWLM or SERVERWLM group flag.

This value is in the range 0 to 64. The WLM weight is the composite weight; it is the sum of the displayed proportional CP, zAAP, and zIIP weights for this member.

 

Suggested Actions

The WLM weight value indicates the available processor capacity of the target system. When the weight value is lower, the capacity is also lower. This value is normalized so that the lowest value is 1.

If SERVERWLM is being used as the distribution method and a server has a WLM weight of 0, verify that the server is using the appropriate WLM Policy and that the system is not too overloaded to enable the server to meet its policy goals.
