  • Determining variable wait time in an asynchronous call-back system based on calculated average sub-queue wait time
    Patent number: 9973512
    Abstract: A method includes a workload management (WLM) server that receives a first CHECK WORKLOAD command for a workload in a queue of the WLM server. It may be determined whether the workload is ready to run on a WLM client. If the workload is not ready to run, a wait time for the workload with the WLM server is dynamically estimated. The wait time is sent to the WLM client. If the workload is ready to run, then a response is sent to the WLM client that workload is ready to run.
    Type: Grant
