Planning

This part provides an overview of the IBM Workload Automation environment and describes how to plan for the installation.

You can use IBM Z Workload Scheduler to plan, control, and automate the entire production workload in your complex, not just the z/OS® batch subset. It automatically plans, controls, and monitors your production workload to maximize the throughput and optimize resource use, but lets you intervene manually when required. If you are currently using previously supported versions, follow the instructions in Migrating.

To avoid security exposures, ensure that you follow all the instructions provided to secure data communication.
