Abstract
A mechanism is provided for scheduling a workload on a computer. The mechanism receives, in the computer, one or more workload-related variables. The mechanism further receives, in the computer, one or more trigger values for at least one of the one or more workload-related variables. Moreover, the mechanism determines, from the workload-related variables and their triggering values, one or more conditions under which one or more tasks are to be performed on the computer. In addition, the mechanism acquires a status value of at least one of the one or more workload-related variables at regular intervals and performs a task when a status value of a workload-related variable attains the triggering value for the task.
