Unfortunately, IBM, et. al. *DO NOT* bill on elapsed time. More CPU used for Dump is less CPU available for productive work, or worse yet, a bigger software bill!
<snip> Increased CPU time to do the dump does not necessarily mean that the elapsed time is longer. In fact, by compressing the data, I would expect that the time required to write it out (the I/O time) would be less. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
