Beskrivelse

Toppen

Do you need to know how to establish a practical performance management program for your z/OS system? This course is designed for new performance analysts to learn to work with the Workload Manager (WLM) in goal mode. Learn concepts of WLM and performance management in the z/OS system using the WLM.

Learn how to analyze Resource Monitoring Facility (RMF) reports and implement service definitions via the WLM Interactive System Productivity Facility (ISPF) application. The course uses z/OS hands-on lab exercises to reinforce the concepts and techniques discussed in lecture.

Virtuel deltagelse

Et V&C Select kursus indholder nøjagtig det samme som et almindeligt kursus. Før kursusstart modtager man kursusmaterialet. Dernæst logger man på kurset via internettet og ser via sin pc den selvsamme præsentation som de øvrige deltagere, man kommunikerer via chat med underviseren og de øvrige deltagere på kurset. Denne uddannelsesmodel er både tids-og omkostningsbesparende og kan være et oplagt alternativ til almindelig klasseundervisning, hvis man f.eks. har et begrænset rejsebudget.
