Purpose

The QUERY SYSTEM COUNTS command requests information about RSCS traffic statistics. For every link, RSCS keeps track of the number of files and messages sent and received, the number of bytes sent and received, and other performance information (such as spool reads and writes).

Note: The numbers representing byte counts are approximate numbers. Use the QUERY SYSTEM COUNTS command to help you gauge the performance of a specific link or the performance of RSCS overall.
The following counters will reset when these fields reach the maximum value of X'7530' or 30000 decimal:
  • FILEIn
  • FILEOut
  • MSGIn
  • MSGOut
  • SPReads
  • SPWrites
The following counters will reset when these fields reach the maximum value of X'77359400' or 2,000,000,000 decimal:
  • FILEINKbytes
  • FILEOUTKbytes
  • MSGINKbytes
  • MSGOUTKbytes
