Scenario: Creating and deploying policies

By packaging and deploying policies, you can monitor the resource utilization of user tasks, and automatically respond when resource usage exceeds the thresholds you define. In this way, excessive resource usage can be detected and dealt with appropriately.

This scenario leads you through the key tasks that are required to define, package, and deploy two policies that manage the user tasks in a CICS® region to ensure that they do not use too much storage. It shows three distinct use cases for the policies:
  1. Policies that are deployed to a single region for testing.
  2. Policies that are deployed with an application.
  3. Policies that are deployed to an active platform.
