1.  A new init class configuration, where class 'a' is on one LPAR and not
the other.  Extending this to multiple classes would force work to one LPAR
or the other depending on a job's class.
2. WLM Scheduling Environments.  Run some applications on one LPAR, other
applications on the other.
3.  I don't have Thruput Manager but it sounds pretty flexible; maybe they
have something that can do this easier than #1 and 2 above.

We have two lpars that perform the vast majority of our batch work. CA7
runs
on one of these lpars and most of the CA7 submitted jobs are picked up by
the
JES2 on that system. This leaves the other system almost empty of batch
work
while the first system is being over loaded.

What are some of our options to spread the workload across both systems on
an
equal basis.

zOS 1.4. JES2 managed batch. Thruput manager is available.
