Lizzette, I've always run HSM below my onlines and above batch in terms of WLM. Works fine. The only time you would have a problem is if your SYSSTC workload is consuming 100% CPU. Surely that is not the case?
If you are CPU constrained then you might throttle back Interval Migration - Maxintervaltask(1). Better yet, do you really need to run Interval Migration? Check your HSMACT.. logs to see if any data is actually being migrated. Check the Customization manual for the patch to run Interval every 3 or 6 hours rather than hourly or just turn it off.

That way you can allow your primary HSM to perform recall processing in it's a higher service class.

Even on my largest LPAR it still consumes a lot of resources. IBM Suggested I set DFHSM to STCMED. My concern is that since we have a lot of tasks in WLM at SYSSTC (not my choice) that if a recall or migrate was requested, that DFHSM might be impacted by the other high runnings tasks. Has anyone delt with Interval Migration and controlling it via WLM? Does anyone else have DFHSM in STCMED and if so, how is that working for DFHSM.
