IBM LoadLeveler for AIX 5L: Using and Administering

Using the Graphical User Interface

This section describes tasks a user may need to accomplish through the Graphical User Interface (GUI). Although this procedure is presented step-by-step, you do not have to follow the steps in the order listed. You may perform certain tasks before others without any difficulty however some tasks must be performed prior to others in order for succeeding tasks to work. For example, you cannot submit a job if you do not have a job command file that you built using either the GUI or an editor.

The tasks included in this section are listed in Table 16.
