II05151: RMF CHANNEL PATH ACTIVITY REPORT: DASHES AND ZERO VALUES FOR PATH UTILIZATION.

APAR status

• Closed as canceled.

Error description

• RMF Channel Path reports, Utilization values:
  When RMF cannot collect channel path data, it reports dashes
  for these paths. The channel paths in question are listed below.
  
       Channel Path |
       Acronym      | Description
      --------------+----------------------------
       BYTE         | Parallel Byte Multiplex
       CBY          | ESCON Path to a Byte Converter
       ISD          | Internal System Device
       DSD          | Direct System Device
       EIO          | Emulated I/O
       CFS          | Coupling Facility Sender
       CFR          | Coupling Facility Receiver
       CBS          | Cluster Bus Sender
       CBR          | Cluster Bus Receiver
       ICS          | Internal Coupling Sender
       ICR          | Internal Coupling Receiver
       CBP          | Integrated Cluster Bus Peer
       CFP          | Coupling Facility Peer
       CIB          | Coupling links using InfiniBand
       ICP          | Internal Coupling Peer
  
  To collect Channel Path data, RMF inspects SRM maintained
  control blocks at the end of each measurement interval.
  Due to hardware restrictions (which are processor type
  dependent), these data may be not, or only partially,
  available to SRM.
  
  When the data is not available for a Coupling Facility Path,
  the average utilization for the set of CF links from a system
  to a CF may be calculated with the data in the RMF Coupling
  Facility Report, Subchannel Activity Section.
  
                    ((SYNC #REQ * SYNC service time) +
                     (ASYNC #REQ * ASYNC service time))
  Utilization % = --------------------------------------- * 100
                   Interval time  *  #subchannels in use
