I think the ISPF application is OK and RMF reports enough information although not in a format that management would like. Therefore the need for other reporting products that put RMF measurements into pretty charts.
The biggest problem I have is that management do not really understand the WLM design objectives, basic concepts and how to use goals and goal attainment in decision making. One of the WLM promises was that it would provide management with better control and reporting. I don't see this happening.
