As your zIIP utilization approaches 100 percent what you should expect is a
corresponding increase in zIIP-on-CP time. That is a system-wide processor
optimization technique. It does not deal directly with the subject of WLM
workload dispatching priorities.

IIRC, Batch LSR was developed at IBM by the BCP team; SMB was later developed
by the DFdfp team. SMB is not BLSR under-the-covers, but it offers the same
advantages.
SMB is the more modern solution. It has worked wonders at my shop. Just mind

We had the same issue with SAS driving up the R4HA. We put the work in a
service class with a resource group cap. The type 72 records gave us a
reasonable target service units/second for starters, and we reduced the cap
incrementally until we were satisfied. The jobs ran longer afterward,

I dimly recall from decades ago a recommendation to run CICS in key 7. IIRC,
it had something to do with aligning a buffer on a page boundary. Long
obsolete advice, I'm sure.

It happens that certain CSA allocations are not really orphans; they're more
like emancipated minors.

The problem is that the SVC99 dynamic allocation is unconditional. If the
resource is already owned, the subsequent allocation request fails. At that
point there is no enqueue conflict to show in any monitor because no exclusive
or shared waiter was added for that resource in the GRS list.
In the old paradigm, technology was managed by technologists. In the new
paradigm, technology is managed by accountants. Computer hardware and labor
costs wind up on different lines of the general ledger. They have different
budgetary constraints and are treated differently for tax purposes

Omegamon has no way of attributing MVS overhead. It simply subtracts the RMF
processor busy time from the interval time and reports the difference.
Being time-driven, WLM uses very little CPU on it's own behalf. In fact, as
has been pointed out, when capping is in effect, IRD weight
explanation can be found in LSPR Workload Categories
on IBMs Web site at
https://www-304.ibm.com/servers/resourcelink/lib03060.nsf/pages/lsprwork?OpenDocument.
Sorry if this is more than you wanted to know, but IBM-MAIN is definitely a
good place to ask.
