Here is the original document ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/s390/zos/wlm/WLMinits.pdf short version: Additional WLM managed initiators will be started when JES queue time becomes a significant component of the delay samples. (note: Held/duplicate jobs are not considered delayed). After some peri

This is about WLM managed initiator management. In "System Programmer's Guide to: Workload Manager", I read that independent of the goals set, WLM might start additional initiators if jobs are waiting in the input queue. WLM will consider "available CPU and memory" in its decision if and on whic
