If you have programmed an SRB routine to determine when it has taken a long time to be dispatched, have it initiate an SDUMP in order to capture system trace. TRAPS NAME(IEASCHEDULETRACE) in DIAGxx will cause the SCHEDULE to be traced in system trace. TRAPS NAME(IEASCHEDULETRACE,IEANOSUSPSYSTRC) may be better for this particular issue, since it will also trace CPU timer and clock comparator interrupts out of wait, which we normally do not trace in order to avoid wrapping more useful entries out of the trace.
