Field - dispatch_time_effective

Logical processor effective dispatch time, in microseconds. When associated with partition name PHYSICAL, this field contains the accumulated number of microseconds during which a physical CPU was busy but the time could not be attributed to a specific logical partition or to LPAR management of the physical processor. One example is time managing coupling facility traffic. This field is zero, if not supported by the hardware. LPAR management time is the time from SMF70PDT associated with partition name PHYSICAL less the contents of this field.
