Subject: Re: Connect:Direct (NDM) CPU Usage
Hello... VOL=50 basically means half an engine! (I have no idea how
many
engines you have).
Half an engine? No. It means basically that if you sample the work over
a period of time, that 50% of the time that the work was eligible to be
dispatched it actually was dispatched.
Arguably this is an extremely crude and ill-conceived way of defining a
performance goal, but it's the one we were given :-(
But my point is VEL=50 is very high for an IMP=4
workload (IMO).
Often true, but not necessarily. (playing devil's advocate :-)
CC
With apologies to Crash, I gotta go with Z. Velocity 50 for an importance 4
workload is way high. I would guess also that nothing else was impacted, so
WLM just gave the CPU to NDM. It's not a problem unless you had other
higher importance workload affected. Make sure you have all the APARs on
for WLM. If higher importance workload was affected, then open a PMR.
