In CICS Version 4.1, workload throughput was improved by the introduction
of a more efficient workload management optimisation function. In CICS
Version 4.2 WLM was further enhanced by the introduction of new routing
algorithms that exclude the link weighting factor. This session will
explain how the Optimised WLM algorithm operates, the implications it has
on the use of Coupling Facility resources and the tuning parameters
available to manage it. This session will show how optimised WLM also
removes the batching phenomenon previously seen in a distributed workload.
Finally we will also discuss the new routing algorithms and how these can
be of benefit.
