How about z/OS tuning expert: Working knowledge of IBM zArchitecture hardware and I/O architectures, z/OS operating system, plus major subsystems including CICS, IMS, DB2, Websphere etc. Demonstrated knowledge of WLM, data collection and performance tools such as RMF or equivalent. Working knowledge of IBM and OEM processor and I/O subsystem capacities and capabilities and a demonstrated ability to adequately size equipment to satisfy business service level and availability requirements within narrow fiscal constraints. Demonstrated ability to work with disparate groups and interpret their business and technical requirements from runes, chicken entrails and hallway anecdotes. Demonstrated ability to (find!!) and navigate through IWMARIN0 and successfully translate said anecdotal information into positional columnar input that resembles the chicken entrails and doesn't bring the system to its knees. Cat-herding skills a strong plus. (Too much?) :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
