Works just fine in a MONOPLEX. I am doing it now. Additional initiators are started/stopped based on the mix of work currently in the system. If you have some mix of JES and WLM managed inits, this can be used (as one example) to limit test/dev work when production is heavy.
Pay close attention to your goals. If they are set unrealistically, you will not get good results. I recommend the following as *REQUIRED* reading before proceeding (watch the wrap): http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/resources/servers_eserver_zseries_zos_wlm_ pdf_cmgbatch_pdf_wlm_goal_based_initiator_management.pdf http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/resources/servers_eserver_zseries_zos_wlm_ pdf_wlminits_pdf_wlminitsjm.pdf http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/resources/servers_eserver_zseries_zos_wlm_ pdf_velocity_pdf_velocity.pdf HTH, <snip> I am reading about the WLM Managed Initiator possibility. As fas as I understand, the option is designed to use it in a Sysplex environment with mutiple systems. Are there any advantages and/or disadvantages when activating it in a Monoplex environment (so only on a single system) or is it of no use in this situation? </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
