Preparing the installation

To install and use the Dynamic Workload Console, perform the following procedure.

  1. Verify that your system is compliant by checking the installation prerequisites in the Dynamic Workload Console Detailed System Requirements.
  2. Install the Dynamic Workload Console by following the instructions provided in Installing a Dynamic Workload Console server.
  3. Log in to the Dynamic Workload Console.
  4. To effectively manage the functions available in the Dynamic Workload Console, create engine connections to the IBM Workload Scheduler environments that you want to manage. Without defining engine connections, you can use only a limited set of Dynamic Workload Console functions. For more information, see Defining a z/OS engine in the Dynamic Workload Console and Defining a z/OS engine in the Z connector.
