As others have said, don't do partitions. They are nothing like the relatively simple matter of creating separate pools.

Creating separate pools is recommended when you want to avoid contention for memory (results in swapping pages in and out too much). If your machine is big enough, you may see no problems.

What is the value of QCTLSBSD?. Even if it is QBASE, you should see 4 pools, *MACHINE, *BASE, *INTERACT, & *SPOOL.

A good healthy nap over the Work Management manual is highly recommended.

One of the reasons for separate pools - communications recovery - is not so much of an issue anymore, IIRC.

Another system issue is that there are no partitions in place. There are also no separate memory pools, or subsystems even for *BATCH, but amazingly, I can't see any poor performance issue, that would warrant instituting these changes. However, for my own selfish reasons, I would like to see how one creates the Partitioning. Can I go ahead and creates something like that? Can you just create partitions in the background, and not have any performance hit.How would you set this up for a simple test?
