Tom,

I'm looking at a presentation from the Webpage you specified.  Under
"Presentations", "Workload Manager", the A03.pdf "Workload Manager for
the DB2 Professional" PDF on page 10 has me a little bit confused.  It
says:

Workload Manager calculates a Performance Index for every ask in the
system that is ready
to execute. If it calculates out to exactly 1, then the task is
achieving its "Goal" as defined
to Workload manager. If it is more than 1, then the task is doing better
than its defined
"Goal" to Workload Manager. If it is below 1, then the task is not doing
as good as its
"Goal" as defined to Workload Manager.
...

A PI larger than 1 was "not meeting goal", I thought, not the other way
around?  Am I just misreading this somehow?

I'm also looking at the sample WLM spreadsheet from that same webpage (I
love to see others' policies, it really expands one's thinking), and I
see that columns O, P, Q, and R are flags of some sort, but I can't seem
to figure out what they mean in context.  Would you please explain them?

Thanks,

Gary Diehl
