Hi Steve, >> ...[I] am trying to figure out what >> is meant in the SCRT "P5" section (Product Max Contributors) >> *when* the entry for z/OS V2 shows each LPAR of the CEC (running >> z/OS and part of the same group) all have 0 for MSUs and then the >> GROUP entry (line total area) has 1500 (example).

This means that the sum of the LPARs' 4HRA has exceeded the defined capacity of the group. In this case, SCRT has enforced the group capacity limit and the contribution to the product's sub-capacity value comes from the group limit rather than the individual LPARs. Example: LPARA and LPARB are in GROUP1. LPARA's 4HRA value in the hour is 100 MSU. LPARB's 4HRA value in the hour is 105 MSU. GROUP1 capacity is 200 MSU. The effective 4HRA for products running on LPARA and LPARB is reported as 200 MSU (the group limit) rather than 205 MSU (the sum of the individual LPARs). If LPARC were also active at 50 MSU, but not part of GROUP1, the 4HRA would be reported as 250 MSU (the sum of GROUP1 and LPARC). >> How do I find what the MSU value should be for each of these >> LPARs or are they group capped to 1500, and that is my total? If you need the individual LPAR values prior to the cap being enforced, you can generate detailed data section V5 (or W3 in a Country Multiplex or Enterprise Tailored Fit report) by specifying the GENERATE_DETAILED_DATA control statement in the SPECIAL DD of the SCRT job. In the V5/W3 section, find the row corresponding to the peak hour and look for the LPAR columns you care about. The notation is "G(xxx)" where G indicates that the group capacity limit was enforced and xxx is the LPAR's original value before enforcement. >> Otherwise, who do you call at IBM that could even answer this >> question? You can open a Case through the usual service process.
