For subsystem work managers, if you do not have the product or product release supporting workload management, you can define goals only for the subsystem regions. Since subsystem regions are treated as batch jobs or started tasks, a velocity goal is most appropriate. All started tasks are managed on the system where they are started.
For example, if you have a CICS® release that is not at least at the CICS/ESA 4.1 level, you could define velocity goals for the TORS and AORS. You could not manage CICS transactions to response time goals.
For reporting or monitoring products, you should check whether they support workload management. Vendor information should explain whether or not they report on the workload management activity.
