Hello I am unable to.copy or paste within and to any outside application like notpad. When I do Alt +e+c and try to paste within or outside I get blank. Tried resetting keyboard 3270 but no luck. Is there any kind of trace options I can enable within 3270 pcom emulator to verify the strokes ?

You can always vary CP offline to reduce the max capacity available to WLM, or change the LPAR CP weights to reduce the max MSU for that lpar -- but its tricky as both PR/SM and z/OS try to maximize usage of available capacity, including donating unused MSU from other lpars. You should be able to
