Hey buddies,
since some months I’m looking for an specialized IBM course on DB2, I already got the diploma of this one, but the thing I want is to get some more knowledge around zOS area, some one like this:
DB2 9 for z/OS Database Administration Workshop Part 1 (ES) (I couldn’t because we were 2 persons subscribed on 4 minimum )
Or this one:
DB2 9 for z/OS System Administration (ES) (I couldn’t because I was the only one subscribed…)
So, as my two database possibilities were gone, I decide to move forward and try over the System Performance line:
Basic z/OS Tuning Using the Workload Manager (WLM) (ES)
And yes! I got it on the third round.
Skills taught:
- Describe a performance and tuning methodology
- Develop a systematic z/OS performance and tuning plan
- Describe the factors which could affect the performance of an z/OS system
- Use the WLM ISPF application
- Describe the components of a service definition
- Define workloads and service levels and classification rules
- State which z/OS commands affect WLM operation
- Identify the major WLM services for z/OS, including enclaves and application environments, and how they are used by DB2, WebSphere, and CICS
- Analyze Central Processing Unit (CPU) performance when running in a shared logical partitioned mode (LPAR) environment
- Measure and tune z/OS Direct Access Storage Device (DASD), processor storage, and Coupling Facility (CF) configurations
- Explain the functions and facilities of RMF and System Management Facility (SMF)
- Analyze performance bottlenecks using RMF
- Use Workload License Charges (WLC), defined capacity, and soft capping to manage software costs
- Describe advanced z/OS environments that utilize Intelligent Resource Director (IRD) and Enterprise Workload Manager (EWLM)
Looks cool, I’m looking forward to start it on Monday’s 30th .
