>If you are referring to the dynamic internal service classes that WLM creates, those only apply to a server topology (like CICS and IMS with transaction goals). WLM has no way of knowing the inter-dependencies of other address spaces.
Yes. You're correct. If you need to exploit this, you MUST have transaction goals. >And I'm pretty sure you have posted several times about not seeing a >compelling reason to use CICS transaction goals (they were never implemented >at my current employer either). The compelling reason is service levels. The last shop I worked at had sub-0.2 second response time with velocity goals. What was the point of introducing transaction goals? When I first implemented goal mode 10 years ago, I was gung-ho to transaction goals for CICS, IMS & DDF. Now, chastised by reality, I realise one size does not fit all. Measure twice, cut once! (But, use all importance levels, effectively) - Too busy driving to stop for gas! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
