SELECT Statement

The SELECT statement is required. You use its parameters to define the source of input accounting data and select reports to be output by CA JARS.

The input indicators tell CA JARS whether or not to open the corresponding data sets to process input accounting data. This allows you to introduce SMF and summary data simultaneously, or independently.

The no-input indicator specifies that no input files are to be processed, but that processing begins with an existing working account file. The use of this feature is intended for specific applications and is not meant as a substitute for account input. When used, the logic implied by a CRITERIA statement and the invocation of an account exit are bypassed. This capability is provided primarily to allow multiple executions of this product to produce more than fifteen reports and/or alternate sets of System Use Reports, without having to recreate the working account file.

The edit-only indicator specifies that no input data is to be processed but that all requested sets of report control statements and any global control statements are to be edited for errors. The use of this feature is recommended when global control statements are present since an error in one of these statements causes the rejection of all requested reports.

The System Use Reports Selection indicators specify which System Use Reports are produced for a given run. This allows you to request any or all of the Computer Utilization Summary, Resource Utilization graphs, Disk and Tape Activity graphs, Multiprogramming Activity reports, and CPU Activity graphs. Additionally, users can request the display of Paging Activity in place of System Occupancy on the CPU Activity graphs.

Note: CONFIG statements are required for Resource Utilization and Tape Activity graphs.

You can also request up to 24 different Program/Job Activity Analysis reports. Data can be displayed on each of these reports either as accumulated totals for the program or job, or as averages based on a single execution of the program or job.

As many as 12 data elements, as accumulated totals or as averages, can be used as the basis for ordering and selecting the programs or jobs for these reports. For a discussion of additional options for the System Use Reports, refer to SYSUSE1 And SYSUSE2 statements.

The set code table allows you to select as many as 15 report formats to be generated in a given run of CA JARS. Each set code table entry is a one-character code specifying the report format selected for output, followed by a blank.

Duplicate record checking occurs only when processing SMF input. For further information, see the "Special Usage Considerations" and "System Description" chapters of your Systems Programmer Guide.
