Companies implementing EWLM will be able to reduce the amount of time their<br />

administrators spend to locate per<strong>for</strong>mance bottlenecks and optimize workloads. Their<br />

current hardware utilization will increase as EWLM instrumentation will provide data collection<br />

and aggregation <strong>for</strong> optimally changing resource settings across the existing plat<strong>for</strong>ms.<br />

Preliminary tests to evaluate the impact on throughput of an EWLM implementation on a<br />

server combination WebSphere/AIX with <strong>DB2</strong> <strong>for</strong> z/<strong>OS</strong> V8 are shown in Figure 7-26.<br />

Figure 7-26 EWLM implementation cost<br />

The diagram reflects the latest EWLM <strong>for</strong> <strong>DB2</strong> <strong>for</strong> z/<strong>OS</strong> V8 per<strong>for</strong>mance numbers. With the<br />

implementation of an improved EWLM interface, EWLM correlator processing cost in<br />

normalized transactions per seconds is 8.33% measured with IRWW servlet workload. Since<br />

part of the overhead is due to CPU utilization by the EWLM Client, this utilization could be<br />
