System information

The System Information section of the Performance Data panel displays system performance data for current and past sessions.

Table 1. Option 5 - Current/past sessions: system information
Type Type of Job, Master, or Agent System
SMFID The SMFID of each LPAR that each job is running on.
ASID The address space ID for each job.
System Number The relative system number.

The Master system is always relative system number 00.

Current Interval The length of time between TDMF polls.
Heartbeat A timer (GMT) that increases for every current interval that the Master or Agent system is active on that specific system.
Expires In The amount of time a system is allowed to be inactive to other systems.
Fixed Storage Frames The number of available fixed storage frames within the LPAR at system initialization that can be dynamically adjusted if pacing is selected.
TDMF Fixed Storage Frames The number of fixed storage frames that TDMF used and is using.
TDMF Fixed Storage Thresholds The high and low watermarks of fixed storage that TDMF uses during the session (obtained at system initialization). These values can change from one session to another.
Average RESERVE delay (msecs) The cumulative amount of time that is spent waiting for SYSCOM Volume Reserve requests divided by the number of READ I/O issued.
Average interval READ (msecs) The cumulative amount of time that is spent waiting for SYSCOM READ I/O to complete divided by the number of READ I/O issued.
Average volume loop (msecs) The cumulative amount of time that is spent processing SRC/TGT volumes between SYSCOM READ and SYSCOM WRITE divided by the number of WRITE I/O issued.
Average interval WRITE (msecs) The cumulative amount of time that is spent waiting for SYSCOM WRITE I/O to complete divided by the number of WRITE I/O issued.

The following figure shows an example of system information with performance data. The additional information, between system and volume, is volume processing loop timing data.
