And this usually adds to the problem of bad TSO response time on SYSB under goal mode since there aren't enough users / samples for WLM. At least since OS/390 2.10 you can have one LPAR's goals be different if you want. FWIW, I have been at many shops without the type of segregation Ted is talking about and WLM does a fine job of managing the workloads.
