For what? There is nothing that I could see in the accounting records (ACOBK) that identifies the program being called. I run a Global Rexx Exit to capture Rexx program usage. My Rexx program logs going back 3.5 years show that nobody has used the EXECs to invoke DMS during that period. If I we

Another way of wording this is that adding CPUs to a virtual machine allows the guest to take advantage of multitasking, but does not increase the total amount of CPU time the image receives. If single threading tasks in the image is the bottleneck, then adding a CPU may relieve it. But if this isn
