Default gatherer session options
Here are the options that take effect by default. You need to specify an option only if you want to change that option to a different value:
| Default Option | Description |
|---|---|
| CACHE | Defines cache data gathering. |
| CFDETAIL | Defines partial data gathering for the coupling facility. |
| CYCLE(1000) | Takes data samples once a second (1000 milliseconds). |
| DATASET(STOP,NOSWITCH) | No data set recording will be done. |
| IOSUB | Defines data gathering for the I/O subsystem and for channels. |
| MASTER | Makes the system eligible to be the RMF Master Gatherer system. |
| MINTIME(100) | Builds a set of samples every 100 seconds. |
| NOLOCK | No data gathering for lock reporting (spin locks and suspend locks). |
| NOOPTIONS | Session options are not displayed at the operator console at the start of the session. |
| NOSGSPACE | No data gathering for storage group and disk space monitoring. |
| NOSTOP | The session does not stop automatically after a predefined time; you must use a STOP command. |
| OPD | Defines data gathering for OMVS process data. |
 PCIE |
Activity data is gathered for PCI Express based functions. |
| RESOURCE(*JES2,JES2) | Assumes that JES2 is installed on the system. |
| SCM |
Activity data is gathered for storage class memory (SCM). |
| SYNC(0M) | MINTIME is synchronized on the hour. |
| VSAMRLS | Activity data is gathered for VSAM RLS by storage class. |
| WSTOR(32) | Sets the RMF™ local storage buffer to 32 megabytes. |
| ZFS |
Activity data is gathered about zFS. |
| ZIIPUSE | Specifies whether the Monitor III data gatherer is entitled to execute partially on IBM System z Integrated Information Processors (zIIPs). |
Monitor III creates two types of records:
- Set of samples
- These records are written into the local storage buffer and (if specified on the DATASET option) into VSAM data sets.
- SMF records
- These records are written if defined in the SMFPRMxx Parmlib member.
