CPU timer, though MVS will change it when different work is dispatched. 

The CPU timer is documented to not decrement when the CPU is in a stopped
state, which would seem logically equivalent to not being dispatched on an
LPAR.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
