Download Description
IBM Workload Automation is a set of products provided by IBM to automate all workload management tasks. IBM Workload Scheduler is the base product (engine) that helps you automate, plan, and control every phase of your workload production.
If you buy the license for IBM Workload Scheduler you are also entitled to use the IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent. You can find all the information related to the IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent in this Download document.
Starting with this release, the access methods and plug-ins formerly packaged as a separate installable product named IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for Applications, are now automatically installed when you install IBM Workload Scheduler. However, to be entitled to use them, you must purchase a separate chargeable component named IBM Workload Scheduler for Applications. You can find all the information related to the access methods and plug-ins in this Download document.
IBM Workload Scheduler is fully functional using its built-in commands. However, you can also use the Dynamic Workload Console graphical user interface to perform all of the product functions:

You can also use the console to operate IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS. Download it from this page, or from its own Download document, from which you can also access information about its Detailed System Requirements and its Release Notes. |
