3.1.1.8 CICCMD: Monthly CICS Service by Type


The Monthly CICS Service by Type inquiry produces a color
graph which correlates the overall average response time with
short, medium, and long response times for the last six
months.  It shows the effect that a particular type of
response events has on the overall CICS response time.  It
also identifies the trend in CICS service.

REPORT FORMAT:

This inquiry produces an overlay plot, using two vertical
axes, which shows the short, medium, long, and overall
average response times.  The average response time is plotted
against the left vertical axis, while the short, medium, and
long response times against the right.


INQUIRY ID:

    CICCMD (color graphic format)

DATA SOURCE (file/timespan):

    CICCSY in the monthly history file.

    One graph produced for each combination of SYSID/CICSID.

DATA ELEMENTS USED:

    CICSID   - CICS System Identifier
    CSYCRSTM - Conversational Response Time Total
    CSYCTRN  - Conversational Transactions Processed
    CSYSRSTM - Short Response Time Total
    CSYSTRN  - Short Transactions Processed
    CSYMRSTM - Medium Response Time Total
    CSYMTRN  - Medium Transactions Processed
    CSYLRSTM - Long Response Time Total
    CSYLTRN  - Long Transactions Processed
    CSYTRANS - Total Transactions Ended
    CSYTRSTM - Total Response Time All Functions
    MONTH    - Month of Year
    YEAR     - Year of Century
    ZONE     - Time Zone
    SYSID    - System Identifier

  CALCULATIONS:

    Average response time = CSYTRSTM/CSYTRANS
    Average short response time = CSYSRSTM/CSYSTRN
    Average Medium response time = CSYMRSTM/CSYMTRN
    Average long response time = CSYLRSTM/CSYLTRN
    Average conv response time = CSYCRSTM/CSYCTRN

EXECUTION-TIME PARAMETERS:

     UNIT   - Select one or more CA MICS data base units by
              entering the data base IDs.  Enter multiple IDs
              with a blank following each ID value.
     CYCLE  - Optionally, define CA MICS input file cycle
              range.

     SYSID  - Optionally, specify the SYSID to be reported.
              If no value is specified, the value *ALL is
              used. It causes all SYSIDs found in input to
              be summarized together.

     CICSID - Optionally, specify the CICSID to be reported.
              If no value is specified, the value *ALL is
              used which causes all CICSIDs found in input to
              be summarized together.
     CENTER - Optionally, specify the CENTER to be reported.
              If no value is specified, the value *ALL is
              used which causes all CENTERs found in input to
              be summarized together.  CENTER is a logical
              grouping of SYSIDs which you assign in the
              global exit %GCNTR.  If this exit is not
              defined, CENTER is set to the value of SYSID.
     MONTH  - Optionally, enter the month (mm) and year (yy)
              to be reported.
    For this inquiry, the default is the last 6 months.

     ZONE   - Optionally, select one or more CA MICS time
              zones.  Valid values are numbers 1 through 9.
     DEVICE - Optionally, override the default colors and
              patterns used by specifying a different device
              type.  The default is TERMINAL.  Because the
              code for color graphics is not generated by
              MICF, the device parameter you specified in
              MICF is not applicable here.
     FOOTNOTE-Optionally, specify whether or not the MICF
              inquiry ID should be displayed as a footnote on
              the graph.  The default value is NO.
USER EXITS:

    If the MICF execution time parameters are insufficient
    to select the data you need, you can invoke one of the
    following global exits to further manipulate the input
    file.  Additionally, you can override the global exit
    definitions in MICF using independent source statements.
    For detailed information on coding the exits, refer to
    Section 3.2 of this guide.

    The global exits are defined by macros in the source
    module CICRPTGL in sharedprefix.MICS.SOURCE.  The
    following exits are available to this inquiry:

     %GCIC  -  Select CICSIDs for report.
     %GCNTR -  Assign value to the variable CENTER which
               defines the logical grouping of SYSIDs.
               CENTER is set to SYSID by default.
     %GSYS  -  Select SYSIDs for report.
    In addition to the above exits, the module CICRPTGL also
    contains macro variables which set default values for
    service level objectives.  Please see Section 3.2 to
    override the default values.
