Most of what I have done in the past centred on aggressive use of space

I have no arguments with what you wrote except I probably would add
five DEFRAGs to it. One defrag of one volume per storage group per day
or per week. I would defrag the volume with the largest frag index. No
harm, no foul there and it may just handle one of those monthly space
abends.
Bob,
No problems with that. It's a lot better than the mid-afternoon religious
observation to DEFRAG that I have seen in too many sites.
At 5 volumes a day some volumes may get their 2nd defrag after 2 or 3 years

The z/OS 1.7 Health Checker is reporting two XCF settings to be corrected:
1. The recommendation to have two TRANSPORT classes with different message
lengths defined. How can suitable mesage lengths be defined?
2. The recommendation for the XCF_FDI (INTERVAL) is based on the SPIN

Guy,
No matter what monitor you are using you can only ever get averages. The
difference is the period of time used to get that average. In reality the
CPU is either 100% busy or 0% busy, and you are just reporting the average
of those states.
The PR/SM CPU activity reports from RMF have
PARTINFO in Sysview will give you the Physical Utilization of all
the engines (including zIIPs and zAAPs). RMF can collect and
report on it for you.

Someone asked the question about what good are reading tapes NL.
There are valid reasons and these go back to the early years before
diskettes, etc, when people wanted to tansfer data. Early, early on
the universal mode of transfer was 7-track tape, BCD, Even-parity
with no labels.

This is not a good metric for determining upgrade requirements. WLM tends
to run the LPARs at 100%
