>how does code indicate it is "zIIP capable" ? When a pre-emptible SRB is created a "secret handshake" (an API) is used to make it eligible to be dispatched on a zIIP; if the work is not zIIP eligible or if there are no zIIPs available the work is dispatched on a CP. The documentation to use the API is available to ISVs who sign an NDA. It is not publically available. >what if it is running as a TCB in a non-zIIP enabled machine ?. I think this question is based on my misstatement. zIIP-eligible work does not run in TCB mode when a zIIP isn’t available so as far as zIIP usage is concerned this question is a non sequitur. Sorry for the confusion. > how far can we (aforementioned peons) trust the numbers from PROJECTCPU and > Als offering in such situations ?. No idea. I'm sure Al can explain.
