Graphical user interfaces

|

One graphical user interface is packaged with the product. You |can use it in addition to, or in place of, ISPF:

|
|
Dynamic Workload Console
|
The Web-based user interface for the entire Tivoli Workload Automation suite of products. |It is the strategic user interface for the suite and includes support |for the latest functions and enhancements featured in Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS. |
|
|

|The console gets access to the controller by way |of the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS connector component, which is also packaged with the product |and is connected to Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS by TCP/IP. For detailed information about |how you install the z/OS connector, see Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS Connector.|

|

The Dynamic Workload Console and Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS connector are components that you install and run |on distributed platforms, Windows, UNIX, and Linux.

|

One z/OS connector can be used to communicate with multiple Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS controllers, |and can serve multiple machines running Dynamic Workload Console . Both the graphical |user interface and z/OS connector can be installed on the same computer.

|

The z/OS connector requires either the embedded WebSphere Application Server packaged with the product, |which can be installed at the same time, or your own external version |of WebSphere Application Server which satisfies the prerequisites listed in the System Requirements Document at http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=672&uid=swg27020800.
