<h4 id="rzajtper-cominterjobsin">Communications performance considerations for interactive jobs</h4>
<p>An interactive job is one that uses a keyboard and character-type display.
If a job needs the user to type on the keyboard and display character results,
that job is probably considered interactive. Interactive in this sense means
that the job and the user depend on each other to get the work done.</p>
<p>To optimize communications performance for interactive jobs, consider the
following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Attach workstations through communications. This requires more CPU overhead
than 5250 local workstations.</li>
<li>Use a twinaxial controller to provide better performance than an American
National Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) controller.</li>
<li>Keep the line utilization below 30 percent for best performance when interactive
users are attached. This maintains predictable and consistent response times.
Exceeding 50 to 60 percent line utilization will typically cause unacceptable
response times.</li></ul>
<p>If your system has interactive users who are connected many different ways,
you should consider configuring your interactive subsystems to separate the
users. Local workstation, remote workstations, 5250 display station pass-through,
or Telnet are some examples of these types of connections that should be separated.
When you configure interactive subsystems, identify how you want the interactive
users to be separated and create the appropriate subsystem descriptions.</p>
<p>During error recovery, when many users risk losing their sessions at one
time, an interactive subsystem can be very busy performing device recovery.
This device recovery can adversely affect the work of other users in the subsystem
who would otherwise be unaffected by the failure. Therefore, you might need
to change how the interactive subsystems are configured. However, multiple
subsystems can provide multiple processes to do cleanup and recovery when
error conditions occur. This can result in improved performance.</p>
<p>The example below shows how to configure an interactive subsystem to allocate
devices that begin with devname* and present a signon display on those display
devices: </p>
<pre class="xmp">ADDWSE SBSD(libname/sbsname) WRKSTNDEV(devname*) AT(*SIGNON)
</pre>
<p>Use the following example to configure an interactive subsystem so that
the device name devname* is not allocated and a signon display does not appear.</p>
<pre class="xmp">ADDWSE SBSD(libname/sbsname) WRKSTNDEV(devname*) AT(*ENTER)
</pre>
<p>Adding workstation entries with AT(*ENTER) allows you to use the Transfer
Job (TFRJOB) function into that subsystem. If the TFRJOB function is not required
or necessary, there is no need to add the workstation entries with AT(*ENTER).</p>
<p>To specify the devices an interactive subsystem<span class="bold"> should</span> allocate when the subsystem is started:</p>
<pre class="xmp">ADDWSE SBSD(libname/sbsname) WRKSTN(devname*) AT(*SIGNON)</pre>
<p>To specify the devices an interactive subsystem <span class="bold">should
not</span> allocate when the subsystem is started:</p>
<pre class="xmp">ADDWSE SBSD(libname/sbsname) WRKSTN(devname*) AT(*ENTER)</pre>
<ul>
<li>See the following <a href="rzajtrzajterrexm2.htm#rzajterr-exm2">example</a> for a way of
configuring your interactive subsystem.</li></ul>
