I also inherited a system and the value was 25%. I had a schedule and it's
startt was 20:00 and
the durh=12 and the previous event completed around 18:30. The schedule
would never started at 20:00. Each time I reviewed the dsmsched.log, the
estimated startt was 3+ hours after the schedule startt. The randomization%
time durh (25%x12) gives the estimated schedule startt I believe. After
setting the value to 0 (zero), the schedule starts at 20:00.

What does the "Schedule Randomization Percentage" mean, exactly? Your
FAQ-O-Matic says to set this to 0. We have it at 50. I've inherited
this system, so was not the one who set this. But what are the
trade-offs? If it was always better to have it at 0, why would they
give you an option?
