Working with application environments

Define an application environment so that workload management can assist in managing work that runs in server address spaces. You can specify that workload management should dynamically start and stop server address spaces to process work running in the application environment. You can define application environments for the DB2®, SOM, and IWEB IBM-supplied subsystem types. Refer to subsystem reference information for guidance on how to specify application environments for the subsystem.

Figure 1 shows the Application Environments panel.
