8. There is one section per EBCDIC name that identifies a CPU type. 'CP' and 'ICF', with appropriate trailing blanks, are examples of EBCDIC names describing a General Purpose CPU and an Internal Coupling Facility CPU, respectively. Name = SMF70CIN Length = 16 EBCDIC Description = CPU-identification Name Offsets 0 0 As of z/OS Version 1 Release 2, both IFLs and ICFs are represented by ‘ICF’ in the SMF type 70 CPU ID Section IBM SMF Type 70 subtype 1 record - CPU Identification Section CP= Central ProcessorICF - Integrated Coupling Facility IFL - Integrated Facility for LINUX ICFs and IFLs

9.  Allows up to 15 images (LPs) per CPC  Different control programs on images – (z/OS, z/VM, Linux, CFCC etc.)  Each LP (image) assigned CPC resources: – Processors (CPs) (referred to as “logical CPs”) – Memory – Channels  Each LP either DEDICATED or SHARED LP= Logical PartitionCPC = Central Processor Complex Logical CP = Logical Processor PR/SM LPAR

10.  Protection/isolation of business critical applications from non-critical workloads  Isolation of test operating systems  Workload Balancing  Different operating systems -- same CPs  Ability to guarantee minimum percent of shared CP resource to each partition  More “white space” – the ability to handle spikes and unpredictable demand PR/SM Benefits

11.  LP definitions entered on HMC – Dedicated or not-dedicated (shared) – Logical processors (initial, reserved) – Weight (initial, min, max) – Capped or not-capped – CPC memory allocation – I/O Channel distribution/configuration – More CPC = Central Processor Complex LP= Logical Partition HMC = Hardware Management Console LP Configuration Decisions

12.  LPs logical CPs are permanently assigned to specific CPC physical CPs  Less LPAR overhead (than shared LPs) HMC Image Profile ZOS1 Dedicated LPs waste physical (CPC) processor cycles unless 100% busy When less than 100% busy, the physical CPs assigned to dedicated LPs are IDLE LP= Logical Partition Logical CP = Logical Processor CPC = Central Processor Complex Dedicated LPs

17. What does LLIC (LPAR Licensed Internal Code) Do?  LCPs are considered dispatchable units of work  LCPs placed on ready queue  LLIC executes on physical CP – it selects a ready LCP and – dispatches it onto real CPs  z/OS executes on physical CP until timeslice expires (12.5-25 milliseconds) or until z/OS enters a wait state  Environment saved, LLIC executes on freed CP  If LCP still ready (used timeslice), it is placed back on ready queue LCP = Logical CP = Logical Processor LLIC = LPAR Licensed Internal Code CP= Central Processor LPAR Dispatching

18.  Priority on the “ready” queue is determined by PR/SM LIC – Based on LP logical CP “actual” utilization versus “targeted” utilization  Targeted utilization is determined as a function of #LCPs and LP Weight – LP weight is a user specified number between 1 and 999 (recommended 3 digits) LCP = Logical CP = Logical ProcessorCP= Central Processor LP= Logical PartitionLLIC = LPAR Licensed Internal Code Selecting Logical CPs

19. LP Weights - Shared Pool % ZOS1ZOS2 PR/SM LPAR LIC CP Shared CP Pool ZOS1 ImageZOS2 Image Total of LP Weights= 400 + 100 = 500 ZOS1 LP Weight %= 100 * 400/500 = 80% ZOS2 LP Weight %= 100 * 100/500 = 20% 400100 CPC MEMORY LCP LCP = Logical CP = Logical ProcessorLP= Logical Partition

20.  Weight assigned to each LP defined as shared  All active LP weights summed to Total  Each LP is guaranteed a number of the pooled physical CPs based on weight% of Total  Based on #shared logical CPs defined for each LP & LP weight%, LLIC determines the “ready queue” priority of each logical CP  Weight priority enforced only when contention! LP= Logical Partition CP= Central Processor LLIC = LPAR Licensed Internal Code LCP = Logical CP = Logical Processor LP Weights Guarantee “Pool” CP % Share

22. LP= Logical PartitionLCP = Logical CP = Logical Processor CP= Central Processor LP Logical CP share  ZOS1 LP is guaranteed 4 physical CPs – ZOS1 can dispatch work to 5 logical CPs – Each ZOS1 logical CP gets 4/5 or 0.8 CP – ZOS1 effective speed = 0.8 potential speed  ZOS2 LP is guaranteed 1 physical CP – ZOS2 can dispatch work to 3 logical CPs – Each ZOS2 logical CP gets 1/3 or 0.333 CP – ZOS2 effective speed = 0.333 potential speed

23.  An active LP’s weight can be changed non-disruptively using system console – Increasing an LP’s weight by “x”, without any other configuration changes, increases its pooled CP share at the expense of all other shared LPs – This is because the TOTAL shared LP weight increased, while all other sharing LPs weights remained constant: LP n weight LP n weight > TOTAL (TOTAL + x) LP= Logical PartitionCP= Central Processor Impact of Changing Weights

26.  ZOS1 LP is guaranteed 3.335 physical CPs – ZOS1 can dispatch work to 5 logical CPs – Each ZOS1 logical CP gets 3.335/5 or 0.667 CP – ZOS1 effective speed = 0.667 potential speed  ZOS2 LP is guaranteed 1.665 physical CP – ZOS2 can dispatch work to 3 logical CPs – Each ZOS2 logical CP gets 1.665/3 or 0.555 CP – ZOS2 effective speed = 0.555 potential speed LP= Logical PartitionLCP = Logical CP = Logical Processor CP= Central Processor LP Logical CP share

27.  An active LP’s logical CPs can be increased or reduced non-disruptively  Changing the number of logical CPs for a shared LP increases or decreases the LP work “potential” – Changes z/OS and PR/SM overhead – Does not change the % CPC pool share – Changes the LP logical CP “effective speed” LP= Logical PartitionLCP = Logical CP = Logical Processor CP= Central Processor CPC = Central Processor Complex Changing Logical CP Count

34.  Both z/OS and PR/SM overhead minimized when LCP count is equal to the physical CP requirements of the executing workload  The number of LCPs online to an LP is correct … sometimes … – When the LP is CPU constrained, too few – When the LP is idling, too many – When the LP is about 100% busy, just right!  Ideally, effective LCP speed = 1.0 LP= Logical PartitionLCP = Logical CP = Logical Processor CP= Central Processor Logical CPs - How Many?

35.  LP definitions entered on HMC – Dedicated or not-dedicated (shared) – Logical processors (initial, reserved) – Weight (initial, min, max) – Capped or not-capped – CPC memory allocation – I/O Channel distribution/configuration – etc HMC = Hardware Management Console CPC = Central Processor Complex LP Configuration Decisions

36. HMC Image Profile  Initial weight enforced  LLIC will not allow LP to use more than guaranteed shared pool % even when other LPs idle  Dynamic change to capping status – Capped or not capped – Capped weight value In general, not recommendedIn general, not recommended LLIC = LPAR Licensed Internal CodeLP= Logical Partition LP “Hard” Capping

37. four  IRD brings four new functions to the parallel SYSPLEX that help insure important workloads meet their goals – WLM LPAR Weight Management – WLM Vary CPU Management – Dynamic Channel-Path Management – Channel Subsystem I/O Priority Queueing Intelligent Resource Director

38.  IRD WLM CPU management allows WLM to dynamically change the weights and number of online logical CPs of all z/OS shared LPs in a CPC LPAR cluster  IRD WLM Weight Management – Allows WLM to instruct PR/SM to adjust shared LP weight  IRD WLM Vary CPU Management – Allows WLM to instruct PR/SM to adjust logical CPs online to LPs Logical CP = Logical ProcessorLP= Logical Partition IRD = PR/SM + WLM

39.  Dedicate CPs to important LPs--- wasteful  Over share CPs---incurring LPAR overhead  Capping  Super Operator – Dynamically change LP weights/caps – Dynamically vary LCPs offline/online LP= Logical PartitionCP= Central Processor Pre-IRD LP Management

40. HMC Image Profile ZOS1  Running z/OS in 64- bit mode  Running z/900 in LPAR mode  Using shared (not dedicated) CPs  No hard LP caps  Running WLM goal mode  LPs must select “WLM Managed”  Access to SYSPLEX coupling facility LP= Logical Partition IRD Prerequisites

41. What is an LPAR Cluster? An LPAR cluster is the set of all z/OS shared LPs in the same z/OS parallel SYSPLEX on the same CPC z900 SYSPLEX2 z/VM Linux ZOS1 ZOS2 ZOS3 ZOS4 ZOS5 ZOSD dedicated shared ZOSZ ZOSY ZOSA ZOSB ZOSC ZOSD ZOSE dedicated shared ZOSX SYSPLEX1 CPC = Central Processor Complex

42. SYSPLEX2 What is an LPAR Cluster? 4 LPAR clusters in this configuration (color coded) z900 z/VM Linux ZOS1 ZOS2 ZOS3 ZOS4 ZOS5 ZOSD dedicated shared z900 ZOSZ ZOSY ZOSA ZOSB ZOSC ZOSD ZOSE dedicated shared ZOSX SYSPLEX1

43.  Dynamically changes LP Weights  Donor Receiver Strategy  WLM Evaluates all SYSPLEX Workloads  Suffering Service Class Periods (SSCPs) – High (>1) SYSPLEX Performance Index (PI) – High Importance – CPU delays LP= Logical PartitionWLM = Workload Manager WLM LPAR Weight Management

44. IF The SSCP is missing goal due to CPU Delay and WLM cannot help the SSCP by adjusting dispatch priorities within an LP THEN WLM and PR/SM start talking --- 1.Estimate impact of increasing SSCPs LP weight 2.Find donor LP if there will be SSCP PI improvement, 3.Donor LP must contain heavy CPU using SCP 4.Evaluate impact of reducing donor LPs weight - Cannot hurt donor SCPs with >= importance 5.WLM changes weights via new LPAR interface SSCP = Suffering Service Class Periods PI = Performance IndexSCP = Service Class Period WLM = Workload Manager WLM Policy Adjustment Cycle

45. Rules and Guidelines  5% from donor, 5% to receiver  No “recent” LP cluster weight adjustments – Must allow time for impact of recent adjustments. Avoid see-saw effect  Receiver and Donor LPs will always obey specified min/max weight assignments  Non-z/OS images unaffected because total shared LP weight remains constant! LP= Logical Partition

46. MAKE SURE YOUR SCP GOALS AND IMPORTANCE REFLECT REALITY AT THE LPAR CLUSTER LEVEL! Because WLM thinks you knew what you were doing! Goals Should Reflect Reality SCP = Service Class Period WLM = Workload Manager

47. Goals / Reality Continued  In the past, the WLM goal mode SCPs on your “test” or “development” LPs had no impact on “production” LPs – If part of the same LPAR cluster, – IRD will take resource away (decrease weight) of “production” LP, – Add resource (increase weight) of “test” LP to meet the goal set for a SCP of higher importance on “test” LP  Develop service policy as though all SCPs are running on a single system image SCP = Service Class Period WLM = Workload Manager LP= Logical Partition

48.  WLM uses the Level of Importance YOU assign to make resource allocation decisions! CICSWEBSITE DAVE’S STUFF GUTTER WORKBOB’S STUFF Importance 1 Importance 2 Importance 3 Importance 4 Importance 5 Workload Manager Level of Importance

49.  Varies logical CPs online/offline to LPs  Goals: – Higher effective logical CP speed – Less LPAR overhead and switching  Characteristics: – Aggressive:Vary logical CP online – Conservative:Vary logical CP offline  Influenced by IRD LP weight adjustments Logical CP = Logical ProcessorLP= Logical Partition WLM Vary CPU Management

50.  Only initially online logical CPs eligible – Operator varied offline not available  If z/OS LP switched to compatibility mode, – all IRD weight and vary logical CP adjustments “undone”. – LP reverts to initial CP and weight settings LP= Logical Partition CP= Central Processor Logical CP = Logical Processor Vary CPU Algorithm Parameters

51. What is Online Time? LCP ZOS2 RMF interval: 30 minutes LCP 0 LCP 1 LCP 2 ---------- 30 MINUTES ---------- Previously, the length of the interval was the MAX time that each LCP could be dispatched. RMF reports on the actual dispatch time. In the past, RMF only indicated that LPC 2 was not online at end of interval. Now, RMF reports the online time for each LPC for each partition. LCP 0 LCP 1 LCP 2 ---------- 30 MINUTES ---------- Interval time=online time LPC Dispatch Time Note: LCP 2 varied offline during interval PAST (pre-IRD) PRESENT (IRD)

52.  Before IRD CPU Vary Management CPU Time= Interval Time - Wait Time andCPU % Busy = CPU Time * 100 Interval Time * No. Processors  After IRD CPU Vary Management CPU Time = Online Time - Wait Time andCPU % Busy = CPU Time * 100 Total Online Time  New SMF70ONT field, total time processor online to LP during RMF interval Vary CPU - CPU Percent Busy

53.  Goals – Better I/O response (less pend) time – I/O configuration definition simplification – Reduces the need for > 256 channels – Enhanced availability – Reduced management  Operates in both goal and compatibility modes Dynamic Channel-Path Management (DCM)

54.  Systems running on z900 or later CPC  Running z/OS 1.1 in 64 bit mode  Both LPAR and Basic mode supported  To share managed channels on same CPC – Systems in LPAR cluster  Balance mode either compatibility or goal  Goal mode requires WLM goal mode and that global I/O Priority queuing selected DCM = Dynamic Channel-path Management CPC = Central Processor Complex DCM Prerequisites

55. IRD DCM Balance Mode Channel Path PCTBusyPCTBusy Before IRD DCM Channel Path PCTBusyPCTBusy After IRD DCM Stated simply, the goal of IRD DCM is to evenly distribute I/O activity across all channel paths attached to the CPC DCM = Dynamic Channel-path Management CPC = Central Processor Complex

56.  Moves channel bandwidth where needed  Simplified configuration definition 2 n – For managed CUs, define 2 non-managed paths plus n managed paths to meet peak workload  DCM balanced mode removes paths from non-busy CUs and adds paths to busy CUs  Currently manages paths to DASD CUs  New metric:I/O Velocity DCM = Dynamic Channel-path Management CU = Control Unit DCM Balance Mode

57. LCU productive time LCU productive time + channel contention delays  Calculated by WLM and the IOS  Uses the same CF structure for CPU mgmt  Calculated for every LCU in LPAR cluster to compute a weighted average  DCM attempts to ensure all managed LCUs have similar I/O velocities LCU = Logical Control UnitCF = Coupling Facility DCM = Dynamic Channel Path Management I/O Velocity = I/O Velocity

58.  All LPs in I/O cluster in WLM goal mode  During policy adjustment routine WLM selects SSCP – IF I/O delays the problem & increasing I/O priority does not help & adding alias for PAV volumes will not help & I/O requests suffering channel contention … – THEN WLM estimates impact of increasing LCU I/O velocity and if benefits SCP PI, sets explicit velocity for LCU  Explicit velocity overrides Balance mode LCU = Logical Control Unit SSCP = Suffering Service Class Periods SCP = Service Class PeriodPI = Performance Index DCM Goal Mode

59.  Dynamically manages channel subsystem I/O priority against WLM policy goals  Only meaningful when I/Os are queued  Supports prioritization of: – I/Os waiting for a SAP – I/Os waiting for a channel  Previously, these delays were handled FIFO SAP = System Assist Processor Channel Subsystem (CSS) I/O Priority Queueing

60.  Uses Donor Receiver strategy  CSS I/O priority setting (waiting for a SAP) – System SCP assigned highest priority – I/O delayed SCP missing goal next – When meeting goals: Light I/O users higher Discretionary work has lowest priority  UCB and CU I/O priority setting (waiting for a channel) – System SCP assigned highest priority – I/O delayed SCP missing goal next – Less important SCP is donor SAP = System Assist Processor SCP = Service Class Period Channel Subsystem I/O Priority Queueing (cont’d)

61. IBM License Manager (ILM)  PROBLEMS: – Software charges based on CPC size – CPCs getting bigger – Workloads more erratic (spikes) eBusiness  SOLUTION – New LP setup option: Defined Capacity – Software priced at LP Defined Capacity CPC = Central Processor ComplexLP= Logical Partition

62. IBM License Manager (ILM)  z/900 servers running z/OS V1R1+  New external: “Defined Capacity” for shared LPs  Defined capacity expressed in MSUs – Millions of Service Units per hour  Rolling 4 hour average MSU use compared with defined capacity by WLM  When rolling 4 hour MSU usage exceeds defined capacity, WLM tells PR/SM to “soft cap” LP (really a temporary hard cap) MSU = Millions of Service UnitsLP= Logical Partition

64. IBM License Manager (ILM)  For software pricing, IBM uses following: – Dedicated LPs - logical CPs * engine MSU – PR/SM hard cap - shared pool % * engine MSU – Defined Capacity- defined capacity – Basic mode- model’s MSU rating  www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/srm/ MSU = Millions of Service Units Logical CP = Logical Processor
