Integration with IBM Workload Scheduler

Integration with IBM Workload Scheduler is provided by activating the end-to-end scheduling with z-centric capabilities feature. This feature is designed to let you schedule and control workload from the mainframe to distributed systems through z-centric agents, in a very simple architecture of the end-to-end scheduling framework. IBM Z Workload Scheduler becomes the single point of control, providing you with all the mainframe capabilities to manage distributed workload. Communication between the z-centric agents and IBM Z Workload Scheduler controller is direct, through the HTTP or HTTPS protocol. This feature enables dynamic scheduling of jobs (by connecting a dynamic domain manager to the controller) as well as scheduling of job types with advanced options (file transfer, database, web services, J2EE, and more).
