Re: Question about LPAR weights and LPAR group controls [EXTERNAL]

Jerry, Based upon what you are trying to do, I suggest the following: Make the total weights for LPARs 1, 2, 3, and 4 add up to 1000, assuming all four are normally active. Then you can easily do the math and for example, give LPAR 2 say 15% of the machine by setting its weight to 150

Thank you, Tom. That is exactly what I was reading. So, here is what I am attempting - to allow Production LPAR to use all the machine, which is production. - to allow the Test LPAR to use, if busy, up to a certain amount of CPU The other LPARs, I am not really concerned about. My

Re: Why LE taking Transaction Dump rather than CEEDUMP?

First, without a functioning IPCS all choices are bad. I would probably take a SYSUDUMP or SYSABEND, look at the RB chains and look at the trace table, but browsing that from SPOOL is a lot less convenient from IPCS and I don't know whether your shop is including the trace table. Have you done

Re: Why LE taking Transaction Dump rather than CEEDUMP?

Thx. Found it the old-fashioned with just good ol' debugging. Buffer overrun :-( so who knows what I may have been clobbering. Would be nice if LE put out a message to say exactly what its problem was (its problem that caused it to abandon CEEDUMP). Charles -Original Message- From:

Re: Question about LPAR weights and LPAR group controls [EXTERNAL]

Jerry, MSU settings (LPAR or group) are enforced by software. LPAR weights (LPAR level only) and absolute capping (at the LPAR or group level) are enforced by the hardware/firmware itself. Weights apply only to active LPARs and control the LPAR's portion of shared processors. In your

Re: Question about LPAR weights and LPAR group controls [EXTERNAL]

Remember that LPAR weights defined from the HMC really only come into play when the system is running hot. Capping will keep an LPAR from exceeding the number of MSU's being consumed. This is generally done to help control cost. On Wed, Jan 13, 2021 at 10:35 AM Edgington, Jerry <

Re: Question about LPAR weights and LPAR group controls [EXTERNAL]

Thanks Paul. Yes, the defined capacity was setup like LPAR weights, instead of MSUs. My goal is to have LPAR #1 and #4, not capped, with LPAR #2, capped. So, I am thinking of changing the defined capacities to 0, and update the initial, max and min with the current defined capacity. But,

Re: Question about LPAR weights and LPAR group controls [EXTERNAL]

Jerry, from what I recall the define capacity is related to what you want to limit the lpar to for MSU usage. You can have an lpar as part of a group that is capped plus you can cap the lpar itself. I've done that before. If I read your email correctly you have a group capacity of 20 MSU

Re: Why LE taking Transaction Dump rather than CEEDUMP?

In my experience this is because LE can't produce a CEEDUMP because a recursive condition is detected. Usually save area chains have been overwritten. This may be one of those cases where TRAP(OFF) may be better so you can get a dump without LE getting in the way. On 13/01/2021 10:59 pm,

Why LE taking Transaction Dump rather than CEEDUMP?

I have a medium-sized C++ application under development (conventional batch). I have gotten fairly used to and fairly fond of debugging S0C4's and the like with the LE CEEDUMP (which pinpoints that sort of error down to the source code file and line number). Suddenly -- and I can't quite define

Question about LPAR weights and LPAR group controls

I am looking for some advice about how LPAR group controls, weights and MSUs work. We have one LPAR group with all the LPAR as members, with MSU group capacity value. On each LPAR, we have LPAR initial and min/max weights. LPAR group capacity 20 MSU LPAR #1

Re: Request for help with removing sequence numbers from PDS members

If any lines have blank sequence numbers, your editor may change the profile to nonum. So the easiest is NUM 73 80 to overwrite any existing characters, then UNNUM to remove the new sequence numbers. On Wed, Jan 13, 2021 at 2:07 AM Wayne Bickerdike wrote: > > UNNUM in the EDIT macro works better

Re: Request for help with removing sequence numbers from PDS members

UNNUM in the EDIT macro works better if the member has real sequence numbers. If it's just any text that happens to be NUM or CHAR, the picture works better :) On Wed, Jan 13, 2021 at 7:02 PM Wayne Bickerdike wrote: > ALLMEM source: > > /* REXX */ >
