Any part of a Mobile Workload's CPU time that you can "identify" as MOBILE can be used in CICS, DB2, IMS and MQ Series. I've worked with a few customers on this as it is supported in my LCS tool and I wrote the code in MXG that helps sites build CSV files that are processed by SCRT.
You need to convince IBM that you can identify the MOBiLE workload, and there CPU time. If you can describe it as a report class or service class in WLM that is perhaps easiest as WLM/RMF then do the accumulation for you. That might be much less overhead than processing CICS 110 data as someone posted. You do not need "dedicated" LPARs or regions to do this; it is the identification of the work that is key. If you are beginning to develop Mobile workloads figuring out the identification is easier while you are designing than after the fact. So design that identification in now rather than later. I do know sites that have transactions that work for tradition and Mobile work that have "cloned" the transaction for Mobile to make that more easy to identify. The "routing" uses the traditional transaction or the mobile transaction. Al Sherkow, I/S Management Strategies, Ltd.
