CATEGORY report

This report provides an overview of the consumption statistics of the individual categories. For each category, the percentage CPU time and the IO operations for paging and disk devices are output.

Report output

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

The report can only be output if the SM2 administrator has

  • defined the devices to be monitored using the SET-SYSTEM-PARAMETERS statement

  • started the monitoring process using the START-MEASUREMENT-PROGRAM TYPE=*SYSTEM statement

Monitoring information

This report contains the totals (SUM) for all categories in the first line following the table header. The data for the individual categories (up to 16) is output in the following lines.

The columns contain the following data:

CATEGORY NAME

Name of task category

CPU-TIME (%)

Each category’s percentage of the time (TU+TPR+SIH+IDLE)

PAGING-IO (1/S)

Total number of paging IOs per second on the monitored devices


The pseudo-category SUM contains all paging IOs (read, write). In the individual categories, only the paging IOs of type read are output.

IO (1/S)

Total number of IO operations performed per second on the monitored devices

(2 LM'S)

Number of active logical machines
