MUF_SMP_TASK (MFM)

This table exists and can be queried in all environments, but it is intended for and useful only in z/OS running the MUF in SMP mode as set by the SMPTASK startup option. When running in SMP mode, multiple z/OS tasks (TCBs) can be dispatched to perform the full range of CA Datacom/DB MUF processing.

This table contains one row for the main task and one for any SMPTASKS generated. It shows the counts of times that each TCB selected and did a unit of work. A request provided MUF, once started, is a unit of work. It continues until a reason to stop occurs. When restarted, it is considered a new unit of work. This table only shows the level of activity done by each TCB. To be most useful, read this table and save the results. After a period of time, repeat and compare the difference to show activity during the time period.
