Identifying server jobs

 

Being able to identify a particular job is a prerequisite to investigating problems and gathering performance data.

If you look at the server jobs started on the system, you might find it difficult to relate a server job to a certain application requester job or to a particular PC client. iSeries™ Navigator provides support for these tasks that make the job much easier. These topics provide information about how to identify server jobs before you start debugging or investigating performance when you are not using iSeries Navigator.
