SET SHARE ABSOLUTE/RELATIVE

2011-02-07 Thread Hughes, Jim
I've read the CP COMMAND manual and the PERFORMANCE manual regarding the SET SHARE command and how it works. Would someone care to comment on how you have used them for your z/VSE production and guest machines? What would suggest for TCPIP/RSCS/VTAM SET SHARE values? Thanks in advance.

Jim wrote The more I read about CP SET SHARE the more I suspect it isn't designed to be a panacea for smooth performance in time of trouble. You are right - it is not. We don't run test guests on production LPARs. Actually, we don't run test LPARs on production z boxes. Actually, we don't run

Hi Jim, We run one production VSE guest, runs IDMS/DC (no CICS) all the time. Batch happens throughout the day, much of it user driven, so day is usually busier for batch than night. That guest gets absolute share 50% and LIMITSOFT of 80%. We have a VSE development guest that gets absolute
