First of all, I'm quite sure all computing has costs. Except.... ....Unutilized sub-peak 4HRA capacity is as close to free as anything in computing. Your time is not free, though. So, just put your Bitcoin mining (or whatever else you want to have fun with) in a basement/cellar WLM service class. I'm assuming trivial disk storage requirements, a fair assumption here. I recall submitting jobs into bottom-of-the-barrel work queues in college. Most of the time they completed, eventually, and nobody else cared. Idle time was just wasted time if not consumed. Has this principle been forgotten? I hope not. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy Sipples IT Architect Executive, Industry Solutions, IBM z Systems, AP/GCG/MEA E-Mail: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
