The information shown is based on MONITOR domain (SAMPLE) and ISFC domain (EVENT) data. It is initially provided by a MONITOR domain record when Performance Toolkit connects to the *MONITOR service. If the program has been set up to collect the monitor data from another machine's disk file, the program will try to obtain the monitor domain data from the first monitor sample in the disk file; the data cannot be shown if the required information is not found in that first sample.

ISFECONF primarily uses the following system records:
  • Domain 1, Record 22 - MRMTRISC, ISFC End Point Configuration, Sample Config
  • Domain 9, Record 1 - MRISFISC, ISFC End Point Status Change, Event
Field Descriptions:
{Initial|Refresh} Status on yyyy/mm/dd at hh:mm:ss
Indicates when the status was obtained, that is, when monitoring was last activated (or reactivated). Initial Status is displayed the first time status information is shown. Refresh Status is displayed when a new configuration record arrives.
Endpoint
The unique sequence number that is associated with this endpoint.
Typ
The endpoint type: Datagram (DGR), Listen (LSN), or Stream (STR).
Act
The endpoint activity: Accept (ACC), Bind (BND), Close (CLS), or Connect (CON).
PortName
The bound port name, port name, or name generated by CP if no Bind.
AssocNam
The name of the service (PortName) that resulted in the creation of this endpoint.
OthrNode
The node at the other end of the connection that is represented by this endpoint.
OthrPort
The service at the other end of the connection that is represented by this endpoint.
End point name
The free-form name (up to 120 characters) that is assigned to this endpoint by its creator.
Changed Config Status
Indicates the date, time, and nature of any changes in the state of an ISFC endpoint.
Date
The date of the status change, in mm/dd format.
Time
The time of the status change, in hh:mm format.
Changed
Describes how the status changed, as follows:

EndPoint= endpoint typ/act 
OthrNode=node 
OthrPort=port AssocNam=name 
PortName=port Name= tttt
where:
endpoint
Is the 4-byte binary numeric unique identifier that is associated with this endpoint.
typ
Is the endpoint type: Datagram (DGR), Listen (LSN), or Stream (STR).
act
Is the endpoint activity: Accept (ACC), Bind (BND), Close (CLS), or Connect (CON).
node
Is the name of the node on the other end of the connection.
port
Is a CP-generated EBCDIC character string name for the endpoint.
name
For an ACC event only, this is the port name of the associated Listen endpoint. For all other events, this field is not meaningful.
tttt
Is a free-form name (up to 120 characters) that is assigned to this endpoint.

Messages:

These messages could appear in the Changed Config Status area:
Not applicable in Trend Scan mode
is displayed when viewing data using the TRNDSCAN command. Because the corresponding change status events are not written to the history files, they are not available for redisplay.
... (oldest lines not displayed) ...
is displayed when the count of the change status lines exceeds the REDISP number (set using the FC MONCOLL REDISP command).
*** Status refreshed ***
is displayed when the new configuration record for this particular report has been received.

Effect of AVERAGE and INTERIM subcommands:

None.
