Business benefits
| Features | Advantages | Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Event driven scheduling | Ability to manage real-time event-triggered workloads in addition to calendar-triggered workloads | Reduces TCO in common event-triggered scheduling scenarios |
| End to End Workload Automation | Centralized but flexible control point in complex, heterogeneous environments | Provide seamless End to End configuration |
| Ships with the IBM Tivoli Dynamic Workload Console | New component provides a single Web-based point of operational control to the workload automation network | Monitor System z or enterprise-wide workloads |
| Critical path analysis and critical workload management | Ability to define workloads as “critical” with analysis of critical paths | Promote critical workloads on demand in response to delays to better meet Service Level Agreements. Leverage integration with WLM and provide more granular workload service class into the workload automation network |
| Integration with IBM Workload Manager, a component of z/OS | Leverage Scheduling Environment policy in WLM, making it easier to manage and monitor jobs with Scheduling Environments associated | Dynamic routing of workloads to best available System z resources |
| Integration with IBM Tivoli System Automation for z/OS | Easy to monitor System z resources | Reduces TCO to schedule System Automation commands and monitor their status |
| Integration with IBM Tivoli Enterprise Portal | Ability to monitor workloads and resources in a broader systems management context through a common interface | Increases the ability to respond to real-time events quickly and accurately |
IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS is a leading-edge workload automation solution. It can automate, plan and control the processing of entire enterprise-wide production workloads, not just the batch subset. It functions as a virtual control point and "automatic driver" for enterprise-wide production workloads to maximize workload velocity and optimize capacity utilization of IT resources, while allowing you to intervene manually as required.
IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS allows planning for hundreds of thousands of jobs, resolves interdependencies and launches and tracks each job. Business continuity and integrity is provided by a hot standby architecture, alternate workstation definition and backup plans.. Resource optimization is achieved by integration with IBM Workload Manager (WLM), a component IBM of z/OS.
IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS leverages Services Oriented Architecture (SOA) to align workload automation to business processes, and integrate with other workload schedulers and systems management products.
