Hello Munif, WLM takes the load and performance of LPARs in consideration, by starting and stopping WLM Managed Initiators on systems that have capacity available or are overloaded. But it does this very coarse, putting a line at 95% utilization. When you have several LPARs that are running near 100%, some of which are overloaded with a bad PI and others still can take more load, WLM considers them all the same. I am looking too at a mechanism to manage WLM managed batch on this type of LPARs. I think the way I go is by allowing or withholding certain jobclasses from certain systems with the $tjobclass(a,b,c,d),QAFF=-name and QAFF=+name. I do this now manually every now and then when I see an overloaded system, but I am still looking for an interface to the information you mention (PI, capping) to automate this. it is really a miss, that WLM does not do this more detailed.

Creating Scheduling Resources / Environment and using automation to turn off/on resources is a possibility but I prefer the first option.. By the way it is DB2 9.0, z/OS 1.12 parallel sysplex environment.
