Doh. All I did was take the code you posted and add a bunch of SAY
statements at the end, but in doing so I somehow got off by one *after the
first statement* and didn't notice-I verified the first one, then failed to
do so for the rest! That's what I get for doing things while on another
call. Now my test system is down but I'm 100% sure this will make it work
right.
Just in case anyone else wants to play with it, to save them the trouble of
doing what I did (twice):

Re: Is there a field that would reflect LPAR soft-capping?;
The IRAQVS block is documented in Storage Areas, if that helps. I have not tried the IWMQVS approach as I am 95% content with the two RCT fields. The 5% of discontent is that it would be nice to have - Granularity less than a 4 hour average. What is the MSU/hour consumption over the last 5 or 15 or even 60 minutes? - Granularity less than a million service units. Why not just service units? Suggestions for the resolving the discontent happily accepted. IWMQVS does not seem to be the answer.

Re: Is there a field that would reflect LPAR soft-capping?
It references IPLINFO, which uses the same fields I now use. Interestingly, the "answer" does not seem to answer the OP's question. He asked about "current" usage. RCTLACS is the average for the last 4 hours. It would be interesting to get the current usage, but I do not know that it is available.

If this value is above the partition’s defined capacity, the partition will be capped. It is calculated using the physical CPU adjustment factor (RCTPCPUA) so it may not match other measures of service which are based on the logical CPU adjustment factor. It is available if the hardware supports LPAR cluster I am assuming I can get to the RCT (possibly by IPLINFO) and as an added bonus, the field is GUPI! So yeah, there is half the answer. So the next question is, where do I find "the partition's defined capacity" (in MSUs/hour)?

hi all, I want to clarify, if the relative weight is 531msu for only one lpar, the defined capacity = 350 msu, this lpar may enjoy the 4 hour rolling average exceed the defined capacity if first 2 hours utilized ony 100msu, is it right, if this lpar keep continue busy greater than defined capacity 350 msu, what happen to the actual utilization, is it still enjoy the soft capping 350 msu or lower than 350msu? -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
Re: soft capping query
No, not exactly this way. After IPL the LPAR starts off with a blank history, wich means zero MSU's for the last 4 hours. So it can use 700 MSU for the first 2 hours before being capped, because than the 4 hour average is 350 MSU. Or it can use 466 MSU for the first 3 hours etc. etc. The 4 hour rolling average is recalculated every 5 minutes over the previous 48 5-minute periods.

Re: soft capping query
A LPAR exceeding its defined capacity will be soft-capped i.e. not allowed to exceed it (in your example 350msu) until the 4HRA drops below the defined capacity. So in your terms it will still enjoy the soft capping value. This also means that 4HRA will potentially keep growing above the defined capacity for some time.
