Batch processing is a fascinating workload like no other, where its character and impact on your system can change with the start of any job step. Operators must remain highly diligent to ensure mission critical workloads complete on time. From the outside, batch is mysterious and seemingly convoluted – and it often is, but every shop has its experts who make the difficult appear easy – getting the work completed every day. How will companies cope when their experts depart for their long-awaited retirements? Let’s explore the technical fundamentals and idiosyncrasies surrounding batch processing. How JES2 queues, selects, and executes jobs? How system initiation levels can have dramatic effect upon processor efficiency? And how and why things can go terribly wrong with batch? Finally, let’s ask the question why managing batch execution is still such a manual undertaking? And why it’s time to automate while you can?
