Additional performance tools

The following are additional performance tools that you may want to consider using with DBCTL if you already have them or are considering adding them to your system.

Generalized trace facility (GTF)
If you use the IRLM as your locking manager, you can use the generalized trace facility (GTF) to provide a trace of its activity. It traces request handler request completions, the PTB input/output buffers, and statistical data relevant to the IRLM.
Resource Measurement Facility (RMF)
The Resource Measurement Facility (RMF) is a measurement tool designed to meet the needs of performance management in the large systems environment that MVS supports.
