Doug Many thanks. CA have also replied to me directly and I am applying 4 hipers for 11.8
My money was on Sysview ... although strangely it seems that SYSVIEW's DA display shows the correct CPU time, obviously more Ops-MVS aware than SDSF and MXI.

Not a critical problem but it's >causing problems with the customer's reports > Hi Paul, This is an OPS/MVS 11.8 problem. PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: OPSMVS 11.8 by default uses ENCLAVES for performance purposes, which may have adverse effects on performance tools, DB2, Websphere, and any other products that use ENCLAVES. CIRCUMVENTION: For immediate relief, change option INITWME in opsview 4.1.1 to NO. Then issue the following MVS command: F OPSx,restart(WME) /* where OPSx is your opsmvs subsystem name */ Apply the associated PTF in order to disable enclave joins for the time being, or remember to change your OPSxPAnn parameter member to include the following statement to reflect this change: T= OPSPRM_SET("initwme","no") The PTF will not affect the INITWME Parameter, but will disable any newjoins.
