BTW, the reason your Infoprint work suffers is most likely due to it having an Importance level of 5. If you make that higher, then it should ensure that Infoprint gets serviced by WLM to ensure its goals are being met [regardless of the velocity or response time settings].

Question for any WLM/performance geniuses, Our Inforprint processes suffer when the system gets slow and therefore print slows. The Infoprint manual suggests changing the WLM Service Class for these processes thusly: * Service Class OMVSDMN - OMVS Print Daemons Base goal: CPU Critical = NO I/O Priority Group = NORMAL # Duration Imp Goal description - --------- - ---------------------------------------- 1 200 3 80% complete within 00:00:00.500 2 600 4 60% complete within 00:00:01.000 3 5 Execution velocity of 40 It's that last period that has us confused. It appears that the first two periods are never attempted and everything falls into the third one (which is not what we want, we want the first one). Should the third one be more like the first two?
