The Web Interface for TWS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

• Temporarily change, insert or delete dependencies and jobs in TWS/WebAdmin’s tables

• Perform (mass) changes to the estimated durations• Save simulation scenarios for later reuse • Calculate the total duration of the critical path of all selected

jobs• Shows the jobs on the critical path

- In a list (table) - As netplan (flowchart)- As barchart

Version 2.2 of TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS provides forecast and Version 2.2 of TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS provides forecast and critical path runtime simulation. This presentation shows critical path runtime simulation. This presentation shows examples of the basic functions: examples of the basic functions:

HORIZONT 3 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

You can start Simulation from AD Modify or Query part

Specify search criteria and click

Simulation

HORIZONT 4 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

Enter a name and description to save

your simulation scenario (selection and modifications)

HORIZONT 5 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

You can load and reuse your saved simulation

scenarios later

HORIZONT 6 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

General information about the simulation

(not jet started)The selected applications

and jobs

Click Simulate to start the calculation of planned start times and the critical path

HORIZONT 7 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

Enter a default start time and check if time dependencies

should be taken into account or not (input arrivals are

always considered to build the external dependencies)

HORIZONT 8 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

The critical path has been

calculated (45:02 min)

Operations on the critical path

are marked

HORIZONT 9 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

If you scroll right, you can see estimated planned start and end times,

which are calculated, based on the dependencies and estimated durations

HORIZONT 10 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

You can define one or more change rules, e.g. add/subtract a percentage

or set a specific duration.

Here we add 10 percent to the duration of operations on

WS=WAIT of applications TCP*

Here we add 10 percent to the duration of operations on

WS=WAIT of applications TCP*

HORIZONT 11 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

The higher durations result in a longer critical path

(49:32 min)

The new “computed simulation durations”

HORIZONT 12 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

In the Netplan, the operations on the critical

path are marked red

Maybe some dependencies

should be changed.

You can insert, delete, modify applications and operations just for simulation

HORIZONT 13 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

Click on Modify and you can change “everything” of an application

HORIZONT 14 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

e.g. change or add external predecessor by using the

application/operation picker

HORIZONT 15 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

The changed application will be stored in TWS/WebAdmin’s

internal database with state “simulation”. You can keep that simulation version as long as you want and optionally you can take it over into TWS.

HORIZONT 16 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

The recalculated critical path is shorter now (38:32 min), even if the durations are still increased

HORIZONT 17 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

You can see which applications has been changed for simulation

and which are unchanged (actual)

HORIZONT 18 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

In the new netplan, the operations of changed

applications are marked green and the new critical

path is marked red (the blue one’s are identical to

the current version in TWS)

HORIZONT 19 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

If there are time depending jobs, the calculation routine can

optionally take care about it. The critical path may get longer (here

01:41:01 now)

HORIZONT 20 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

You can see which operations are time dependent and it’s start times

HORIZONT 21 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

The new critical path

Double click shows the details

HORIZONT 22 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

There is also a useful bar chart with timeline etc.

Operations on the critical path are marked red

HORIZONT 23 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

Applications are maybe scheduled in different run cycles on different days.Enter a date and you will get only that applications,

scheduled on that day (e.g. Thursday)

HORIZONT 24 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

Some more jobs are scheduled on that day

(e.g. Friday)

HORIZONT 25 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

And that results in a different critical path

HORIZONT 26 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

Simulation works also with lots of jobs and

dependencies

HORIZONT 27 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

You can zoom in the netplan and follow the

marked critical jobs

HORIZONT 28 TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS

TWS/WebAdmin for z/OS Simulation

There is also a netplan and a list of the critical

jobs only
