QUIESCE the task will work, if it is swappable. If non-swappable, create a ServiceClass (such as SWAPOUT) that points to a Resource Group (such as RG_SWAP) with a maximum of ZERO Service Units specified. Then reset the task's SRVCLASS to SWAPOUT.
znor...@desertwiz.biz -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Pommier, Rex R. Sent: Thursday, June 24, 2010 Thursday 8:31 PM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: WLM question that I'm afraid I know the answer to Hello list, Is there any way to force a job to swap out, even if the computer has lots of spare CPU cycles? I think the answer is "no", but thought it was worth asking. We are having major slowdown problems trying to run disk-based cloning of Oracle databases on a DMX-4 that is being shared with the mainframe. Even though the background clone is running at low priority in the DMX, jobs and tasks running on the "Z" are running at a snail's pace and I was hoping to suspend one of the batch jobs running in an attempt to speed up the rest of the batch work. Thanks.
