I think the OP and prolly most of us non developers make a bad assumption based on what SDSF's help and user guide provides, which is very little. checking the alternate display on SDSF for one of my DB2 subsystems I see CPUtime as 4093.12, GCPUtime is 2187.06 and Ziiptime is 2.17, that's not ad

If the comment is correct that the SDSF display is using ASCBEJST, then the statement "ZIIP is not reported as part of CPU." is not correct with respect to that display. ASCBEJST includes all time, whether standard CP or zIIP. There are additional fields, such as ASSB_TIME_ON_CP, that do not incl

Which is interesting when you consider that most (Windows) PCs are single-user machines. Macs, BTW, tend to do well in the 8-16GB of memory range. So, an 8GB (strongly urged) minimum for a massively multi-user machine such as z14 isn't really a lot. And, yes, I know memory usage patterns vary
