Processor

Normally, the amount of processor power is not the most significant factor in IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS performance.

Of course, no matter what the power of the processor, if most of the processor is normally busy, then the processor can be the most critical resource for any application. In such a case, you can help IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS get access to the processor resource by giving it higher dispatching priority. This might not be a serious impact on lower priority users, because in most cases, IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS needs the processor frequently, but does not need it very much. The IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS subsystems should have a priority just below that of the JES subsystem.
