You can put a line in the dsm.opt that forces dsmc to give up some processor time for something else. The line is "processor" (without the quotes) with a number. My dsm.opt shows processor 2. This forces dsmc to give up processor time for 10 sec. at a time. Even though you may not see your utilization go down, you can look at the highest processor threads and watch dsmc go down in the list, letting other applications have some time. I am also looking into finding some way that I can lower the priority of dsmc.

Compression on all the volumes is off therefore I have the following settings in the dsm.opt file: COMPRESSION YES COMPRESSALWAYS NO Please help.
