ABSTRACT:
A workload manager creates an in storage representation of a set of performance goals, each goal associated with a class of clients (e.g., client transactions) in a client/server data processing system. A set of servers, providing service to the clients, are managed to bring the clients into conformity with the class performance goals by: calculating performance indexes for each class to determine the target class(es) which are farthest behind their class performance goals; analyzing the relationship among servers and client classes to determine which servers serve which classes; determining which resource(s) are impacting the service provided to the key servers (that is, those on which the target class(es) are most heavily reliant), and projecting the effect of making more of these resources available to those servers; and, finally, making the changes to those resources which are projected to most favorably indirectly affect the performance of the target class(es).
