Re: TRCASPBAL

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is probably running as a task. These are 
low-level things (SLIC) that do work but are not 
jobs as we think of it - MI stuff. I found 
something by going to www.iseries.ibm.com/support 
and putting trcaspbal in the search box - 
knowledge base article called "IBM OS/400 or IBM 
i5/OS? Disk Balancing Support" with link at
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas180a0c71876d5a872862567ca00770cb0&rs=110
has this info in an FAQ

Q: Where are the commands running?
A: They do not show up as jobs in WRKACTJOB as 
they run below the MI as tasks. The WRKSYSACT 
command (available from Performance Tools/400) or 
the DST/SST Display/Alter/Dump task list will 
show tasks that have names that start with:

SMIOCOLLECT
SMTRCTASK
SMDASDUTILTASK
SMBALUNIT
SMEQ



SM stands for storage management, BTW.

If you see CPU utilization you can't account for 
in WRKACTJOB, often is is because of low-level 
tasks. SAV/RST operations often result in this, 
as they use these kinds of tasks.
