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.

So, it is added to the MVS Busy field. > If you are not pre-empted, then nothing is added. > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
