Hello, Does anyone have an explanation of why this service returns different capacity figures for the partition if z/OS is running under VM from when running natively.
Thanks Steve The following is taken from the z/OS V1R9.0 MVS Authorized Assembler Services Reference QvsCecCapacity, QvsImgCapacity, and QvsVmCapacity contain the maximum service rate that theoretically could be achieved at each level. The value is in millions of service units per hour (MSU). QvsCecCapacity is equal to the individual CPU speed multiplied by the number of online and offline physical CPUs. If QvsImgValid is on, the image is in ESAME mode, and QvsVmValid is off, then QvsImgCapacity is equal to one of the following: * The partition's defined capacity set via the Hardware Management Console, if any * The individual CPU speed multiplied by the number of online and offline logical CPUs, if the partition is uncapped and has no defined capacity * The capacity at the partition's weight, if the partition is capped via the Hardware Management Console. If QvsImgValid is on, and either the image is in ESA/390 mode or QvsVmValid is on, then QvsImgCapacity is equal to the individual CPU speed multiplied by the number of online and offline logical CPUs. QvsVmCapacity is the individual CPU speed multiplied by the number of online and offline virtual CPUs. In all cases, the individual CPU speed in based on the MP factor for the number of online and offline physical CPUs. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This email has been scanned for all known viruses by the MessageLabs Email Security Service and the Macro 4 internal virus protection system. . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
