I'm not against SYSSTC, not at all, so please don't misunderstand the following. My point was that SYSSTC would not help too much if that workload (of which I do not know the design) is starting a bunch of new UNIX processes, say 100, when all BPXAS had ended before. There is a sudden need to create 100 BPXAS address spaces in support of that 100 processes. I'm not saying this takes endless time but it might just be too long to achieve the desired response time. Apart from that, I agree that this is not a nice solution and should be done as a last resort (maybe the second but last :-) Partly because of this I wrote in a previous post that an external interface to tell WLM how many BPXAS to keep around might be desirable. -- Peter Hunkeler Credit Suisse ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
