Not quite accurate.

All LPARs also have to 'want' CPU.
If one is coasting and the other wants more, it will get it (unless capped).

EG:
Weights: LPARA -- 650
          LPARB -- 350

Off shift LPARA is nearly idle
Processor usage 100%

>From real life:
Usage: LPARA -- 30%
        LPARB -- 69%
     PHYSICAL -- 1%

Weights only take effect if there is processor contention (at 100%).
