Error description

  • The specialty engines CPU values appear in the SMF 30 using the
    speed of the specialty engines.  These times can be normalized
    to the CPU speed of the standard CP.  This maintence will
    apply the normalization factors (SMF30SNF and SMF30ZNF) to the
    zIIP and zAAP CPU values.  The resulting values are placed in
    the 792 record, dictionary field names R792ZIIP and R792ZAAP.

    The specialty engines' CPU times are not normalized.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The specialty engines' CPU times in the 792 record are
    normalized using the factors provided in the performance section
    of the SMF 30 record, SMF30SMF and SMF30ZNF.  The following
    calculation is used:  (CPU time * factor) / 256
