Workload Manager (WLM) has been a blessing for the mainframe. Before WLM there was Systems Resource Manager, which was full of cryptic parameters with vague interactions between them. Back in the '80s, a systems programmer might agonize for weeks before making a simple change, only to become reacquainted with the law of unintended consequences. WLM simplified things quite a bit, enabling the performance analyst to set goals and letting the system manage them.
