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.
