End-to-end scheduling

By using end-to-end scheduling, you can schedule and control jobs on mainframe, Windows™, and UNIX™ environments, for truly distributed scheduling. In the end-to-end configuration, HCL Workload Automation for Z is used as the planner for the job scheduling environment. HCL Workload Automation domain managers, standard, fault-tolerant, and z-centric agents are used to schedule on the distributed platforms. The agents replace the use of tracker agents.

HCL Workload Automation for Z also allows you to access job streams (schedules in HCL Workload Automation) and add them to the current plan in HCL Workload Automation for Z. In addition, you can build dependencies among HCL Workload Automation for Z job streams and HCL Workload Automation jobs. From HCL Workload Automation for Z, you can monitor and control the distributed agents.
