Re: Web access job priority

If you configure the server jobs as batch then they
will have a lower priority than interactive jobs on
the AS/400. That is to say, users using the Web Server
have a lower priority than users running AS/400 5250
interactive jobs. Is that what you want? I would
assign them the same priority (however I'm not an
expert on work management).

How do the server jobs get started? Is there one of
each type of server program for all users or do you
mean one per user?
I would have the servers started and initialized when
the subsystem was started.
