Re: WRKACTJOB Discrepancies

The % used figure is calculated as an average based on the time you
started the command. Use F10 to reset/restart the statistics.

V5R1 iSeries. Don't ask why ('cause I don't know), but I ran WRKACTJOB on
two different sessions, under the same profile (mine). The CPU % on one
session shows 24.3, but on the other session it shows 6.9.

I have refreshed (F5) several times on both sessions and the wide
variance
still shows up (though, of course, the numbers change slightly). The
WRKACTJOB for session D3 registers as .00, even after several refreshes,
for
the WRKACTJOB run from session D2.

I signed off of both sessions and logged in again. Now the difference is
minute.

What am I *not* understanding here? I have usually relied upon the
WRKACTJOB command to let me know who or what is impeding progress on the
system and used F5 to refresh the display.

Thanks.
