IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent, version 9.4 - Linux

Download Description

The IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent is used with IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS.

See the IBM Workload Automation online product documentation in IBM Knowledge Center for all the information necessary to use it.

Together with the IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent comes the access methods and plug-ins, formerly known as IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for Applications.

However, to be entitled to use them, you must purchase a separate chargeable component named, IBM Workload Scheduler for Applications. You can find all the information related to the access methods and plug-ins in this Download document.
