CPU timer, though MVS will change it when different work is dispatched. The CPU timer is documented to not decrement when the CPU is in a stopped state, which would seem logically equivalent to not being dispatched on an LPAR. -- Binyamin Dissen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.dissensoftware.com ================================================= I don't think that was the OP's intent. Of course, the CPU timer runs while (any) LPAR is dispatched on the specific CPU is not in a wait state. However, two consecutive stores of the CPU timer can show wildly different values if the unit of work is pre-empted between the two instructions. The OP is apparently looking for a timer that shows active LPAR cpu or elapsed time. Jeffrey D.
