RE: system constantly running @100%

I always create a class set to priority 50 for QZDASOINIT jobs. If the
programmer still didn't improve his coding, I would set the priority to 88.

Have you checked to see what the job priorities are for the QZDASOINIT Jobs?

By default these jobs run at priority 20 which is the same as interactive
jobs. You can control the priority
and resource usage of these jobs. Just by changing the priority to 21, this
will reduce "some" of the impact to interactive users since those jobs run
at priority 20.

But that won't fix poorly written sql or lack of proper indexes.

Plus you say big upgrade....depending on what version and release you are on
now... you could be missing PTFs that are important.

I am on the Crystal reports side here but i see on the as/400 and the
personnel are
constantly saying that the system is running at 100% (when i do wrkactjob i
can see, I dont do
that constantly.).

What can be done about a situation like this? They have a big upgrade
planned but until
then, is there anything you can suggest to reduce thew 100%.
