Factors that influence response times

Consider these factors:
  • The number of operations in the plan and the size of the networks. The current plan consists of networks of occurrences. Occurrences with dependent operations are inserted on the same network. In many installations, the size of the largest network can be as much as 80% of the entire plan. When a modify request is processed by the general service task, for example, to add an occurrence with dependencies, HCL Workload Automation for Z must ensure that the change does not cause a loop in the network.
  • Specific request types that initiate network scans. For example, modifying a dependency in the MCP dialog.
  • Poor construction of list requests resulting in sequential searches of the current plan data set.
  • Time taken to search the ISPxLIB concatenation for panels, messages, load modules.
