Throughput - Workloads

Purpose

Show how much work is happening in each WLM workload.

One of the intended purposes of workloads in WLM is to split particular users or applications into separate categories for monitoring and reporting purposes.  For example, you might create a workload where all Cognos reports will run so that you can track the impact of Cognos on your production database.

Workload Name

Eval Order

Source: syscat.workloads.evaluationorder

CPU Time

Source: mon_get_workload.total_cpu_time

Activities Completed / m

The number of activities completed per minute is one measure of how much work is being accomplished by connections associated with this workload.  Activities typically correspond to a query, although there a few additional things that count as an activity including LOAD and stored procedures calls.
