Scheduling

Scheduling objects are workstations, workstation classes, domains, jobs, job streams, resources, prompts, calendars, variables and variable tables, parameters, event rules, and run cycle groups. Scheduling objects are managed with the Composer program and are stored in the IBM Workload Scheduler database. To create or modify an object, you can use either the IBM Workload Scheduler command line interface or one of the graphical interfaces.

Scheduling includes the following tasks:
  • Defining and maintaining workstations
  • Defining scheduling objects
  • Defining job streams
  • Starting and stopping production processing
  • Viewing and modifying jobs and job streams.
