My understanding is that when a system is using dynamic LPAR allocation, a maximum defined capacity for a given LPAR can be set, something less than the CEC capacity. Anyone know where that's defined (what control block)? That is, given three LPARs on a 1000 MSU box, each might be allowed a maximum of 800 MSUs. RCTLACS, RCTIMGW, and friends in IRARCT don't seem to show the maximum: I've seen RCTLACS vary when examined five minutes apart.
SMF70MSU in ERBSMF70 is defined as: Defined capacity limit (in millions of service units) that a logical partition may consume per unit time on average ...so it's out there somewhere! I've spent some time searching for MSUs, "defined capacity", "workload units", and even "millions", and I don't see it. I know about SYSEVENT REQLPDAT, but am trying to make this simple for a user -- "run this Rexx snippet and tell me the current, max, and CEC capacity". zMan -- "I've got a mainframe and I'm not afraid to use it" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
