Greetings,
I've noticed that RMF CPU reports favour showing LPAR utilization over MVS
utilization.
Let me give some examples. Also, I'm only considering LPAR mode on a z990.
1. SUMMARY(INT) summary report shows MVS %
2. REPORTS(CPU) is comprised of 3 parts (relevant here).
a. shows MVS% and LPAR% for each active processor
b. shows detailed CPC information. The detailed CPC information
contains total LPAR% and physical CPU%
c. LPAR cluster report showing LPAR%
3. PLOTS(CPU) plots LPAR% for each processor
There are other reports that include the CPU in the header, but I'll just
ignore those here.
I realise that all 3 CPU measurements are important, but it seems to me
that LPAR% is being portrayed as the important value to be keeping an eye
on.
Another example. When I look at RMF monitor 3 Workflow/exceptions, the CPU%
indicated is the LPAR%, not the MVS% utilization. SYSINFO shows me the
MVS%. CPC capacity only shows LPAR% and physical%.
What do you people think? I am being too picky? I expected PLOTS(CPU) to be
MVS% but was suprised to find it was LPAR%.
Thanks
John
