Using the Data Index (DI)

The Data Index (DI) provides information about the data that is currently available for your Reporter session:
  • Current® data from all active gatherers in the sysplex
  • Preallocated data sets from previous gatherer sessions
To display the index, select it on the Primary menu or enter DI or DS on any command line.
You can also see if data is missing, or could not be retrieved for one of the following reasons:
  • No data is available on the system
  • The system does not respond
  • The gatherer for the system is not active
  • RMF™ is not active on a system
  • The preallocated data set is empty or has an error

Thus the Data Index provides a compact overview of information about all systems belonging to the sysplex, regardless of whether RMF is active or not.
