- See the description of the $D J command in z/OS JES2 Commands.
- The DelayRsn values are provided by the MVS Subsystem Interface. See z/OS MVS Using the Subsystem Interface.
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| K | Kilo (hexadecimal scaling) |
| T | Thousands (decimal scaling) or Tera (hexadecimal scaling |
| M | Millions (decimal scaling) or Mega (hexadecimal scaling) |
| B | Billions (decimal scaling) |
| G | Giga (hexadecimal scaling) |
| P | Peta (hexadecimal scaling) |
| KB | Kilobytes |
| MB | Megabytes |
| GB | Gigabytes |
| TB | Terabytes |
| PB | Petabytes |
Changing the width of the column, with the ARRANGE command, affects the scaling. When filtering on columns that use binary abbreviations (KB, MB, and so forth) you can enter either a number or a number with the abbreviation. For example, 4096 and 4KB are both valid with entering a filter. However, SDSF always displays the value as 4KB.
The values for the PhaseName column are described in the following table. The table also shows the corresponding value in the Queue column.
