(QDYNPTYSCD)</p>
<p><span class="uicontrol">Dynamically adjust job priorities within priority bands</span>,
also known as <span class="uicontrol">QDYNPTYSCD</span>, is a member of the performance
category of i5/OS™ system
values. You can use this system value to set the job priorities within priority
bands to be dynamically adjusted. To learn more, keep reading.</p>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">What can I do with this system value?</h4><p>This system
value allows you to turn on (1) and turn off (0) the dynamic priority scheduler.
The task scheduler uses this system value to determine the scheduling of jobs
for the processor. When enabled, the dynamic priority scheduler will adjust
job priorities within priority bands, depending on each job's use of system
resources. This typically allows greater throughput on the system, but may
slightly alter the priority relationship between jobs within a band. For example,
priorities 10-16 are in Band 1, 17-22 are in Band 2, 23-35 are in Band 3,
36-46 are in Band 4, 47-51 are in Band 5 and 52-89 are in Band 6.</p>
<p>Regardless
of the value assigned to this system value, any jobs that are given a priority
of 0 through 9 are put in a high-priority band 0. This band is always checked
first by the task dispatcher before any other dynamic priority bands are checked.
If a job in this band becomes processor bound (by looping), the job can lock
the system.</p>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Where can I get more information about this system value?</h4><p>To
learn more, go to the performance system values overview topic. If you are
looking for a specific system value or category of system values, try using
