Automatic workload recovery

The portfolio enables processing production workload to continue even when system or connection failures occur. If one system fails, the portfolio can restart the processing on another system. When the controlling system is running in a z/OS® system complex (sysplex), a hot standby function can automatically transfer control of the production workload to another system in the sysplex. Because the portfolio continues to manage the production workload during failures, you can maintain the integrity of your processing schedules and continue to service your customers.

In HCL Workload Automation, a switchmgr function provides the possibility to replace a failing master domain manager or domain manager workstation with an appropriately configured backup fault-tolerant agent or domain manager .
