We saw a similar R4A MSU reduction without any new specialty engines. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kelman, Tom Sent: Tuesday, September 29, 2009 1:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Just installed a new IBM z10-BC
We installed a new z10-BC with a zIIP on Sunday (IBM 2098-Q05). It is working out well and my management is pleased. We normally run an MSU high 4HRA of 110 MSUs during a regular work day. Yesterday our high was only 86 MSUs. Of course this was due both to the zIIP and the improvement in the MSU/MIPS ratio over the z9-BC processor. The next few days should be interesting as they are our high usage month end/quarter end processing. It'll be interesting to see how much of that gets moved to the zIIP.
