The accounting system allows you to collect and report on individual, group, and
Workload Manager (WLM) class use of various system resources. This
accounting information can be used to bill users for the system resources they
utilize, and to monitor selected aspects of the system operation. To assist with
billing, the accounting system provides the resource-usage totals defined by
members of the adm group, and, if the chargefee command is included, factors
in the billing fee. The fileset bos.acct contains the accounting commands and
configuration files.
The accounting system also provides data to assess the adequacy of current
resource assignments, set resource limits and quotas, forecast future needs, and
order supplies for printers and other devices.
