RESPONSETIME report

This report contains data on response times, think times, transaction times and wait times for messages in the BCAM pool.

Report output

The REPORT RESPONSE statement is used to request the output of the RESPONSETIME report.

The report can only be output if the SM2 administrator has

  • defined the monitoring parameters using the SET-RESPONSETIME-PARAMETERS statement

  • specified the connection sets to be monitored using the ADD-CONNECTION-SET statement

  • activated the monitoring process using the statement START-MEASUREMENT-PROGRAM TYPE=*RESPONSETIME

Depending on the definition of the SCOPE operand in the SET-RESPONSETIME-PARAMETERS or MODIFY-RESPONSETIME-PARAMETERS statement, SM2 output bucket-specific or category-specific screens.

In the case of SCOPE=*BUCKET, the user receives a separate screen for each of the connection sets to be monitored (up to 16, including global statistics) with bucket-specific values. Global statistics are output first.

In the case of SCOPE=*CATEGORY, the user receives a separate screen for each of the connection sets to be monitored (up to 16, including global statistics) with category-specific values. Global statistics are output first.

Categories for which no values have been specified are not output. If values are specified for more than 13 categories, the screen is scrolled upwards by the corresponding number of lines so that the topmost lines of the report are not visible on the screen.

If both SCOPE=*CATEGORY and SCOPE=*BUCKET are specified, a screen is output for bucket-specific values first, followed by one for category-specific values.

Monitoring information

For each screen, the associated connections or connection groups are output above the monitoring data, as well as the connection set name (“GLOBAL” is the name given in the example), when the ADD-CONNECTION-SET statement is defined).

CONN-TYPE

Types of connections taken into account during monitoring:

  • REMOTE: Remote connections only

  • LOCAL: Local connections only

  • BOTH: Local and remote connections

RESP. TIME (1)

Response time data; the type of response time monitored (as specified via the DEFINITION operand of the SET- and MODIFY- RESPONSETIME-PARAMETERS statements) is output

(1): Response time as per definition 1

(2): Response time as per definition 2

THINK TIME

Think time data

TRANS. TIME

Transaction time data

WAIT TIME

Wait time data (in the BCAM pool)

AVG SEC

Average duration of an interaction in seconds (without overflow data)

NR. INTER

Total number of interactions in the monitoring cycle (without overflow data)

RATE 1/SEC

Number of monitored interactions per second (without overflow data)

BUCKET

Corresponds to the bucket limits in seconds in which monitored data is arranged in accordance with duration. The last line of the columns (>) contains the overflow data. Data displayed there is not is not used for computing AVG SEC, NR. INTER and RATE 1/SEC.

COUNT

Corresponds to the number of interactive operations in the individual buckets

The SM2 administrators can modify the bucket limits and the number of buckets by means of the SET- and MODIFY-RESPONSETIME-PARAMETERS statements if the default options are not suitable. If no interactions were recorded in the last monitoring cycle, the message NOTE: SOME INTERACTIONS MISSED:<number> is displayed in the bottom line of each of the RESPONSE TIME screens. This may be the case, for example, if the number of active connections is greater than that defined in the CONNECTION-NUMBER parameter of the SET- or MODIFY-RESPONSETIME-PARAMETERS statement.

INPUT-LEN

OUTPUT-LEN

The average lengths in bytes of the input or output messages

Monitoring information

For each screen the associated connections or connection groups are output over the monitoring values; the connection set name (in the example it is *GLOBAL) is output, too. (A connection set with the name *GLOBAL, in which all connections are monitored (CONNECTION (*ALL,*ALL,*ALL)), is automatically defined using the SET-RESPONSETIME-PARAMETERS statement.)

CONN-TYPE:

Types of connections taken into account during monitoring:

  • REMOTE: Remote connections only

  • LOCAL: Local connections only

  • BOTH: Local and remote connections

CATGORY NAME

Name of the category

RESPONSETIME

Monitoring data for the response time

THINK TIME

Monitoring data for the think time

TRANSACTION TIME

Monitoring data for the transaction time

WAIT TIME

Monitoring data for the wait times (in the BCAM pool)

AVG

Average duration of the transaction (in seconds) (without overflow values)

#INT

Total number of transactions during the monitoring cycle (without overflow values)

RATE

Number of interactions monitored per second (without overflow values)

If the BCAM-CONNECTION monitoring program is started at the same time, incorrect values may be output for WAIT TIME.
