It's our annual peak time, first day of classes for Fall Semester. Since last spring, I've "ratcheted down" the group capacity for our 4 lpars on a z9BC-L03. I had it down to 16. Last week I raised it to 17, today after capping had cut in, I raised it to 18 and then to 19. I expected it to take at least some wall time for the 4-hour average to catch up, but in reality, RMF III shows WLM Capping still in effect. It's now lunch time and we seem to be meeting our workload. I guess I really don't fully understand how the 4-hour average is determined.
The other thing I've noticed in this exercise these past few months, is that, whatever number I have the Softcap set at (say n=16), SCRT reports n+1 (17). I haven't pursued this curiosity as yet.
