Uses

This query provides a useful overview of how PR/SM reports the various LPARs when there is contention for the physical engines in the shared engine pools. The dispatch priority hierarchy, defined by these relative weight values, should be in agreement with the importance of the business critical applications dispatched on the various LPARs. If the shared engine pool for a particular processor type is heavily used, an LPAR that primarily runs discretionary workloads should not receive as large a percentage of engine dispatches as an LPAR that executes business critical workloads.
