Hello group:
Our actual CFRM CDS is formated with ITEM NAME(CF) NUMBER(2). This isn't the
actual situacion and we want update the dataset with ITEM NAME(CF) NUMBER(1).
Our CFRM policy is updated with one CF but when we want to add the new CFRM CDS
the sysplex reject with:

hi all,
I want to clarify, if the relative weight is 531msu for only one lpar,
the defined capacity = 350 msu, this lpar may enjoy the 4 hour rolling
average exceed the defined capacity if first 2 hours utilized ony 100msu,
is it right, if this lpar keep continue busy greater than defined
No, not exactly this way.
After IPL the LPAR starts off with a blank history, wich means zero
MSU's for the last 4 hours.
So it can use 700 MSU for the first 2 hours before being capped, because
than the 4 hour average is 350 MSU.
Or it can use 466 MSU for the first 3 hours etc. etc.
The 4 hour
Yes, it is very difficult to lower CDS parameters. But why would you do so? The
value only designates the maximum for which the CDS is formatted and does not
cost anything, except a few tracks of space maybe. It is probably not worth the
effort to reclaim these tracks.

the compiler once it has set up things like I want.
The -Wc,LIST(filename) option would work fine to indicate that I want a

About 25% of our mainframe server code is written in C already but you still
need HLASM to deal with the guts of z/OS. I have already told the lad to
read the POPS but that's not enough, you need background in basic z/OS
concepts, JCL, ISPF, Rexx, etc. The courses we have found provide this.
