We are having four partitions defined on one of our boxes (2086), with one z/OS image always running, one CF LPAR with CFCC always running, but the remaining two idle most of the time (that is, the remaining two partitions are active and have their share of resources allocated, but no OS is running there). All CPs are shared. None dedicated. We wonder what percentage of CPU, otherwise spent on PR/SM management, could be spared and reclaimed if: (1) We run a single z/OS image in Basic mode on this 2086 (no LPARs defined)? (2) We inactivate the two partitions that are usualy idle and redistribute their resources.
