Ted,

That's not quite right. RMF CPU busy is 1-(waittime/interval). There is no
MVS Busy field: it is actually CPU Wait Time that gets accumulated and CPU
busy is calculated from Wait Time. 

If a Logical Instruction Processor (LIP) is pre-empted, then it is not in a
wait state and there is no wait time accumulated even though the LIP is
doing nothing.
