1. Is it required or recommended in Sysplex system with DB2 data sharing to have more than one CP in the CPC. 2. Which is better to have CPC with one CP as example 200 Mips, or CPC with two CPs each 100 Mips. If I'm not mistaken DB2 multithreads therefor having multiple CP is advantageous, with

Hi, I'm going to simplify this a bit to show you the differences. First, CICS has multiple kernels which can execute in parallel if the CP's are available to use. While most of the work can happen in the Application Kernel, it's by no means all of the work that CICS does to support the tasks it

Unfortunately, with a max of 128 gig of real, that would leave you with the requirement to attach a zillion page packs to the system. Performance would probably not be too good. Not to mention with a wait stated system, since you cannot 'attach a zillion page packs'. You are limited to 253x4GB

Re: Sysplex and CPU Questions

2005-11-13 Thread Barbara Nitz
I believe that the original question was about the CPC having only one processor. Since the topic implies sysplex and hence a CF, I would strongly recommend against sharing one processor between a CF and an lpar, especially in production, assuming that the lpar is on the same CPC as the CF and the
