Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IMS Buffer Pool Analyzer        *
    *                 for z/OS Version 1 Release 4 (FMID=H28A140)  *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: This APAR enables the BPLMAIN report    *
    *                      job to produce the alternate            *
    *                      configuration reports that reflects     *
    *                      the modeled results based on the        *
    *                      hiperspace buffer values specified in   *
    *                      the VSAM subpool definitions            *
    *                      (VSRBF= statements) in the DFSVSAMP DD. *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the maintenance for this APAR.         *
    ****************************************************************
    This APAR enables the BPLMAIN report job to produce the
    alternate configuration reports that reflects the modeled
    results based on the hiperspace buffer values specified in the
    VSAM subpool definitions (VSRBF= statements) in the DFSVSAMP DD.
    In addition, the process of producing alternate configuration
    reports for VSAM subpools is improved, allowing the BPLMAIN
    report job to produce more accurate alternate configuration
    reports for VSAM subpools.
    Additionally, this APAR enables the BPLMAIN report job to
    display the DASD read value in the DEDB subpool details in both
    the current and alternate configuration reports, and enables
    the BPLMAIN and BPLCF report jobs to properly handle the BUFNO
    statement specified in the SYSIN DD.
