Local message traffic

z/OS MVS Setting Up a Sysplex
SA23-1399-00

In this report, the “REQ OUT” count includes all messages sent by the indicated member, including any messages sent to members (possibly itself) on the local system. Similarly, “REQ IN” includes all messages received by the indicated member, including those sent by members (possibly itself) on the local system.

To determine how many messages were sent within the local system by a particular group, take “REQ OUT” and “REQ IN” and discard those signals that were sent to or received from another system. For example, to determine how many signals were sent by members of a local group, take the total for the “REQ OUT” values for all the members of that group as reported under the heading “MEMBERS ON sysname”. Then take the total “REQ FROM sysname” value for that group from under the heading “MEMBERS COMMUNICATING WITH sysname”. Subtract the total “REQ FROM” value from the total “REQ OUT” value and you will have the total number of signals sent locally by that group. With this data you can predict what signaling resources will be needed to support local message traffic in the future.
