Re: Jobs using over 100% CPU

I just ask. It's a 15 partition hosted system. They only use one
partition.

Is there some maths to do in the calculation when working with multiple
LPAR systems when we see over 100%? 900% seems like some serious
overclocking. :)

How many partitions on the box Brad. This happens quite often for us when
we run a CPU intensive process when no other partitions are in use.

I have a customer who is reporting that the CPU for some jobs is over

100%

for a period of time.

WAS90SVR 875.39%
QINAVMNSRV 135%
QNPSERVS 900.28%

I'm guessing the first is a webserver job and the other two are system
jobs, obviously.

It's only for a short time during the night that this seems to happen.

All

other job CPUs (calculated using CPU time and elapsed time) show exactly
the same as what shows on WRKACTJOB.

Of course, since this was at night they weren't able to compare these 3
jobs on WRKACTJOB.

I know I've seen ++++ before for CPU percentage... but these seem odd.

I do know that there seems to be issues with the list jobs API on this
system to as it will return multiple instances of the same job from time

to

time in the active job list (not using SQL, using the API).
