Typically, what percentage of power consumption of a z14/z15/z16 machine that's running flat out is used by the same machine which is switched on, but not actively processing any useful work (i.e. all the subsystems and started tasks such as CICS, DB2, MQ, IWS etc. are up and running, ready to receive work, but there isn't any work to be received)? Perhaps the situation you might get in the middle of the night on a development machine when the developers aren't working 24x7?
Can we do any better than the non-answer of "it depends"?
