From*Job Waits White Paper*:

1.0 Running and Waiting

All “units of work” in a system at any instant in time are in one of three states:

*Q. CPU Queuing:* ready to use CPU, but waiting for a processor to become available (a.k.a. “ready”, “CPU queued”, "CPUq")

*C. Dispatched CPU: *(a.k.a. “dispatched to a CPU/processor”, “on a CPU”, “running”, “running and sharing a processor”).

Note: Dispatched CPU time very frequently differs significantly from CPU utilization or CPU time due to multithreading (hardware or software), virtual processors, or background assisting tasks. This is normal! More on that later.

*W. Waiting* for something or someone (a.k.a. “blocked”, “idle”)

I think you can take a look at PDI (Performance Data Investigator). It's interesting how PDI groups wait buckets for better understanding.

Hello, We have a job that is running longer and shows a good amount of time
being spent in dispatched cpu sharing/waiting. Would anyone be able to
explain what dispatched cpu sharing/waiting means. Thanks !
