So at what point with the service class get restricted based on the resource group settings?

When things get tight, the RG cap will be enforced. HTH, <snip> If you remember I had a situation where the CPU was hitting its four hour avg and soft capping itself. When this happens CICS and DB2 aren't allowed to flex above and I get max socket errors within the busiest CICS. At the advice of the group I set up a resource group and associated to a service class to batch jobs that I blame for running the service units up during the day initiating the capping. The resource group definition is CPU% based and I selected 20% max and 1 % min. Single jobs that are using this group regularly exceed the 20% max, multiple jobs really exceed the max collectively. Am I misunderstanding how this works? The goal was limit the number of SUs consumed by batch and spread it out longer in the day in hopes to avoid the capping. </snip> This email ? including attachments ? may contain confidential information.
