John,
The first value is the traditional SRM busy calculation from CPU wait time.
This is accurate for LPARs with dedicated processors, but with shared
processors as an LPAR's LP approach their weights in a CEC that is 100% busy
the LP often loses control of the CP before it goes into a wait. CPU
If you have done SMP/E apply against both target zones, then there is
no guaranteed fix.
For example, if there are members in MTS or STS that both target zones
think they "own", ACCEPTing the maintenance in one zone will move those
members into the appropriate DZONE DLIBs and remove them from MTS

John,
Read it as "100 percent of 60 percent of the physical capacity of the box." It
is likely you have some slack in the other LPAR due to LPAR weight management.

SDSF DA is showing CPU 100 / 60. This z/OS is in a Group Capacity situation
with another LPAR. The CEC is rated at 47 MSU. The Group Capacity is set at 38
MSU. 38/47 is .8085. The LPAR utilization from BMC Mainview is showing 60% cpu
for this LPAR and 24.5% for the other LPAR. That is 84.5% busy

The SMP/E User's Guide states:
...each SCDS is directly related to a specific target zone, and each target
zone must have its own SCDS.
It also says this about the MTS, STS, and LTS.
Why is that? I have a couple SMP/E environments with multiple target zones and
only one set of SMP/E datasets.

I don't remember how many models or other features there were to choose from,
but in ca. September 1996 I bought a new one from IBM for $30,000. It did its

Good Day To All,
I have noticed that there are several backup tapes of non existant DASD
which are still held on by DFHSM. In order to release these tapes from HSM
control would a RECYCLE of the tapes do the trick? If not, could you suggest
another alternative?
Thanks.

I read the article and am confused. In India, does IBM require zSeries hardware

"free"? Or do the competitors want IBM to port z/OS to run on their platform?
Or to allow z/OS to run on an emulator (like Hercules/390 or that
