The Workload Manager component of the z/OS system (referred to as WLM) monitors a sysplex and determines how much resource should be given to each item of work in the sysplex to meet the goals that you have defined for it. It also reports data about the work.

The Workload Management task in z/OSMF provides a browser-based user interface that you can use to manage z/OS® Workload Manager (WLM) service definitions and to provide guidelines for WLM to use when allocating resources.

In IBM mainframes, Workload Manager (WLM) is a base component of MVS/ESA mainframe operating system, and its successors up to and including z/OS. It controls the access to system resources for the work executing on z/OS based on administrator-defined goals.

Workload Manager (WLM) gives system administrators more control over how the scheduler and the virtual memory manager (VMM) allocate resources to processes. Using WLM, you can prevent different classes of jobs from interfering with each other and you can allocate resources based on the requirements of different groups of users. Classes
