PM06000: INFLATED CPUTIME NUMBERS IN TRANSACTION HISTORY EXTRACT

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In IMS PA V4.1 the CPUTIME data provided by the IMS X'07' record
  is in Timer Units, which is converted to Micro-second numbers in
  the Transaction History extract.  In IMS PA V4.2 the CPUTIME
  data is provided in Micro-seconds, but the same conversion
  factor is still being applied in the Transaction History
  extract.
  The CPUTIME conversion factor is no longer required.
  

Local fix

• Conversion factor is to divide by 26.04166 in case anyone
  needs to make any conversion by hand.
