Very interesting thread... casually I was reading about IRD when I saw this
mail in my inbox :-)))

I didn't see any shop with IRD, but seems that it's useful for large shops,
with multiple LPARs in several Sysplex.
AFAIK IRD works
Now we know, that Hiperdispatch also disables fundamental IRD functionality.
That statement is not correct:
- HiperDispatch *replaces* Vary CPU Management (and only when
HiperDispatch=YES.)
- HiperDispatch provides *more* functionality and is much more efficient and
faster than the old Vary

One colleague told me that they have marked WLM managed (IRD) in some LPARs,
but they don't have Parallel Sysplex, so they didn't

1) have you placed the tasks in the appropriate service classes to be linked
with the RG?
2) Are you using transaction goals or velocity goals.
3) Perhaps you might want a processor cap as opposed to a SYSPLEX cap (Option
3). Are you saying that your sysplex has an aggregate of 2 million SU/sec?
1) yes, and mainview confirms this.
2) Velocities.
