Response time data collection settings

The following settings can be changed from an OMEGAMON for CICS (3270) session.

  • Time intervals
  • Time scale for moving time periods (Time Scale)
  • Thresholds
  • Period in moving time period for determining exceeded threshold (Time Window)

In order to change any settings, you must first stop collecting response time data. This is necessary to clear any accumulated data. Select the Control option (O) on the Main Menu and then select the RTA Off option (B) or enter fast path O.B from any panel to deactivate response time analysis. After changing the settings, restart data collection by selecting the RTA On option (A) on the Control path or entering fast path O.A from any panel.

The settings that affect the collection and display of response time data are defined in the Global Data Area.

You can modify a subset of these settings from an OMEGAMON for CICS (3270) session. The changes remain in effect for all sessions monitoring that CICS region until you change them or stop OMEGAMON for CICS (3270).
