I get that expert caching helps paging a shared pool by the job types, etc from a high level. But how does one determine whether or not one should bust jobs or subsystems into their own pools?
Is there then a concern that too many pools may create islands of underutilized memory?
Select
count(*) as job_count,
SUBSYSTEM,
SUBSYSTEM_LIBRARY_NAME,
JOB_TYPE,
MEMORY_POOL,
SYSTEM_POOL_ID,
POOL_NAME
from table(qsys2.active_job_info(
RESET_STATISTICS => 'NO',
SUBSYSTEM_LIST_FILTER => '' ,
JOB_NAME_FILTER => '*ALL',
CURRENT_USER_LIST_FILTER => '',
DETAILED_INFO => 'ALL'
)) A
group by subsystem, subsystem_library_name, job_type, memory_pool, system_pool_id, pool_name
order by subsystem, subsystem_library_name, job_type, memory_pool, system_pool_id, pool_name
;
Creates this output:
