Processing Rules

  1. Straight Move: For character fields, left-justified if possible, low-order character truncation of blank filling; for numeric field, type conversion is permitted; high-order digit truncation may be possible but is considered unlikely; scale must not change.
  2. Derive date and time from STCK start time. Keep the minimum start date and time from the log records that created the summary record.
  3. Number of log records that created the summary record.
  4. Derive the date and time from STCK end time. Keep the maximum end time from the log records that created the summary record.
  5. Concatenate items with dashes.
  6. Convert units in 16 microseconds to JARS MINUTES, DEC=5.
  7. Compute estimated CPU time according to the formulas described in SAGTIP009.
  8. Derive day of week code from result of rule 2.
  9. Constant
  10. Accumulated according to user-specified keys in QENVR table.

Estimated CPU Time

The calculation of estimated CPU time is represented by instruction path counts within ADABAS commands and the executing CPU instruction execution, per second, factored by the ADABAS job CPU time as logged by SMF.

The estimated CPU time element is approximated by the interface as documented by Software AG's SAGTIP009. Its accuracy ultimately depends on:

  1. The reliability of the user-supplied factors.
  2. The stability of ADABAS itself. (As enhancements are made to ADABAS, the instruction paths change.)
