We have a temporary need to cap our overall rolling four hour average until the new box arrives. We are running z/os 1.7 on a z/9 and, as far as I know, don't have the ability to do that. Our particular mission has one most loved LPAR that we'd prefer to run at the expense of all else.
We have enough power so that we are worried only about some occasional spikes that the normal soft capping won't handle to suit us. I know this has been discussed before, but I'm wondering what the current consensus might be for our situation. For example, what if I really skew the weights such that the unloved LPAR's are starved if the most loved needs the cycles. If the unloved LPARS are starved, then they should not be able to rack up MSU's and thus lower my total. Thanks The very best of the season to you, yours, and theirs. May the coming year see your pursuit of happiness be productive.
