Doesn't answer your Q. However, unless you have a very I/O intensive workload e.g. TPF system, normally there is sufficient SAP capacity for Z servers. The other point to note is SAPs on z14 servers also support SMT (Simultaneous Threading) as standard..

My colleague ran reports on them over a 60 day period for two different CPCs. Are there any benchmarks in use that would indicate the necessity for more (or less) SAPs? -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Horst Sinram Sent: Tuesday, June 04, 2019 4:13 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: SAP Processor Utilization On z/OS, you can use SMF78.3 and the RMF IOQ report. Plus, there are some related overview conditions.
