Subsystem Configuration: Managing Server Jobs

The default subsystem configuration shipped with i5/OS® is a basic subsystem configuration that works well for small systems. However, as the number of users increases on the system, it is desirable to split the work into multiple subsystems to better manage the work on the system. In turn, when you have multiple subsystems configured, you need to have better control over the server jobs that run in a given subsystem. System i ™ Navigator provides many different interfaces for locating and managing server jobs. After a server job is located, there are a variety of functions that can be used to control and manage these jobs.
