no no no no no....
CPU is the bottleneck, not queues, not paging. THis is a matter of CPU redistribution. or
application tuning, or talk to your ibm business partner about more CPU.

Did you perhaps increase the size of the virtual machines when going to

In any case, I'd check for an eligible list. (do #CP IND Q and look
for any of your guests in E3).
If any VSE guest is in E3, I'd suggest (carefully) adjusting the SRM
STORBUFF setting to allow more overcommittment of real storage. Monitor
your paging activity and page space usage carefully.

Greetings,
We have just converted the last of our 5 VSE machines to z/VSE 4.1.0 (from
VSE/ESA 2.6.1) and are experiencing performance issues. My peak times are
98-100% utilization and people are complaining about poor response times.
I don’t know whether it’s because I am using CICS data tables more now or
because of the additional CPU utilization for z/VSE.
Anyways, one question I have is the usage of the SET SHARE.
I have been using the ‘SHARE ABSOLUTE’ directory control statement for each
of my VSE machines (giving say 38% to one machine, giving 29% to
another,etc…) with maximum share nolimit.
The problems seem to occur when batch jobs are run in these predominately
CICS/TS systems.
I was wondering if maybe a SET SHARE RELATIVE technique would be more
effective and what you do in prioritizing virtual machines within the
physical machine?
Thanks,
Mike
