Defining workloads

As part of the definition, you assign a composite name to which a workload belongs.

If your site has MainView VistaPoint installed, you can combine the performance from similarly named composite workloads into a common application. MainView VistaPoint presents application views that you can use to see the combined performance of workloads that share common tasks.

For a CICS platform or application, you can define a workload for a specific version of the application, or for all versions. To do so, your site must be running CTS 5.1 or later, and you must have the CICS Platform and applications defined.
