3.1.2.7 CICCMI: Monthly CICS Workload

The Monthly CICS Workload inquiry produces a color graph
which shows CICS activity by transaction type (short, medium,
and long) for the past 6 months.  The graph shows the trend
in total work volume as well as workload characteristics.

REPORT FORMAT:

This inquiry produces a vertical bar chart displays the
monthly workload for the past 24 months.  Each bar is
subdivided by transaction type to show the workload
characteristics.  The output of this inquiry is in color
graphic format.  However, you can produce the same chart in
printer graphic format by executing the MICF inquiry CICPMI.

INQUIRY ID:

     CICCMI (color graphic format)

DATA SOURCE (file/timespan):

     CICCSY from the monthly history tape.

DATA ELEMENTS USED:

     CICSID   - CICS System Identifier
     CSYTRANS - Transactions Processed
     CSYSTRN  - Short Transactions Processed
     CSYMTRN  - Medium Transactions Processed
     CSYLTRN  - Long Transactions Processed
     MONTH    - Month of Year
     YEAR     - Year of Century
     ZONE     - Time Zone
     SYSID    - System Identifier

   CALCULATIONS:

     None

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.

              For this inquiry, the default is the 01 cycle.


     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.

     MONTH  - Optionally, enter the month (mm) and year (yy)
              to be reported.

              For this inquiry, the default is previous
              month.

     ZONE   - Optionally, select one or more CA MICS time
              zones.  Valid values are numbers 1 through 9.

     BY  -    Optionally, specify the BY variable (either
              SYSID or CICSID) to produce separate graphs for
              each system.  Otherwise, all SYSIDs and CICSIDs
              are summarized together and displayed on one
              graph.

     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.
