We all have our go-to tools. In z/OS, products associated with managing the R4HA, and automation are becoming more and more common. Managing the R4HA offers the most effective method to control software costs.  Automation because even your best analyst can’t balance workloads with unpredictable loads driven by digital drivers like mobile, Internet, and analytics.
With z/OS, IBM includes a number of features and tools to assist in these areas, such as Defined and Group Capacity (DC/GC) and Capacity Provisioning Manager (CPM).  The question is, what more can be done?
This presentation will explore these free capabilities from IBM and provide details on their use, functionality and limitations.
We’ll explain how ThruPut Manager provides additional capabilities to manage the R4HA even without capping and provide automation to address the inherent limitations of the IBM facilities.
