DELAY - Delay Report

You can use the Monitor III Utility to customize the DELAY report. In addition to the delays previously described, you can use the Utility to have the following delay percentages shown.

To see all delays for a particular class or summary line (*SYSTEM, *TSO, *BATCH, *STC, *ASCH or *OMVS), use cursor-sensitive control on any name starting with an asterisk ('*') under the name column or on any value in the CX or Service Class columns, to display a subset of the Delay report for that group.

When you use cursor-sensitive control on the *ENCLAVE summary line, you are shown a subset of individual enclave names.

Using cursor-sensitive control on an enclave name displays a pop-up panel that shows information you extracted from the WLM Enclave Classification Data (ECD) control block. You can use this information to identify the transactions that are processed in the enclave. See Enclave Classification Attributes for an example.

To see all jobs using or delayed for processor, use cursor-sensitive control on any indicator under USG % to display either the Processor Delays or the Device Delays report, depending on which is contributing more to the delay.

To investigate which jobs or resources are contributing to a delay, use cursor-sensitive control on any indicator under DLY % or % Delayed for to display the related resource report or job delay report.

The parameters that you specify on this panel (except Summary and Criterion) affect all job-oriented detail delay reports.

Class

The class of jobs for which you want delay and common storage data reported. For Class, you can request:

• T or TSO
• B or BATCH
• S or STC for started task
• A or ALL for all jobs in the system
• AS or ASCH for ASCH address spaces
• O or OMVS

Your selection for Class applies to all delay and common storage reports and is saved across sessions in the current option set.

Service Class

The service class for which you want data reported. For Service Class, you can specify any of the available service classes listed under Available Service Classes.

If the service class you want is not listed, it was not active during the current report interval. If you specify the service class, it will appear on the report when it is available.

Your selection applies to all delay and common storage reports and is saved across sessions in the current option set.

Summary

Summary allows you to specify whether you want summary lines for the DELAY report.

To produce one summary line for all jobs in the system and one summary line for each class (TSO, BATCH, STC, ASCH or OMVS), enter ALL for Class and YES for Summary.

To only produce a summary line for one class, group or service class, enter the name for Class and YES for Summary.

Your selection for Summary applies only to the DELAY report and is saved across sessions in the current option set.

Criterion

The value (from 0% to 100%) that RMF compares to each job's computed delay value in deciding whether to include the job in the DELAY report.

RMF displays all jobs whose delay values meet or exceed the Criterion.

The value that you specify for Criterion applies only to the DELAY report and is saved across sessions in the current option set.

Jobs

A YES for JOBS displays the name of all the active jobs in the Class, Group or Service class you specified and any jobname that you previously selected or excluded.

You can use this list to view active jobs in the system and to select and exclude jobs from your report.

Available Service classes

The list of available service classes includes all of the service classes that belong to the Class you specified and that had any activity during the current report interval.

Press the END key to make these values active for the session.

If you select YES for Jobs on the Delay Report Options panel, RMF displays a Job Selection/Exclusion panel shown in Figure 3.

The Job Selection/Exclusion panel allows you to select or exclude specific jobs from your delay reports.

To select a job for your delay reports, type an s to its left, under SEL; to exclude a job, type an x to its left. (You can select *ALL for all jobs in the specified class and group and then exclude specific jobs. Similarly, you can exclude *ALL and then select specific jobs.)

To select several jobs with similar names, use an asterisk ('*') as a "wild card" character under Jobname. For example: to request a report for all jobs starting with A, specify 's' under Sel, 'a*' under Jobname and ensure that there is an 'x' beside *ALL.

Sel  Jobname    Sel  Jobname
 S   A*______    S   BK*_____
     ________        ________
 X   *ALL

To select or exclude a job that is not listed, enter the job name in the top row and the appropriate selection code to its left.

All the jobs might not fit on this panel. Use PF8 and PF7 to scroll through the remaining job names.
