Recommendations
Consider these recommendations:
- Use half-track blocking as much as possible
- Add VSAM buffers through JCL AMP statements for clusters that are not processed using the LSR buffering technique.
- Consider using Batch LSR on EQQADDS, EQQWSDS, and EQQRDDS for long-term and daily planning batch processing.
- Perform general z/OS tuning: examine swap rates, dispatching priorities, the UIC, and especially demand paging rates. Reduce demand paging if possible, or consider moving the daily planning batch jobs to a processor with more real storage, in the same GRS ring as the controller, if one is available.
