5.3 CTG Information Area Files

This section identifies each file in the CICS Transaction
Gateway (CTG) Information Area and defines its level of
summarization and data sequencing as the files appear in the
applicable timespan levels.  It also lists the data elements
contained in each file.
 
The files are described in the following sections:
 
    1 - Gateway Server Activity File (CTGGSA)

5.3.1 Gateway Server Activity File (CTGGSA)

The Gateway Server Activity contains data quantifying the
activity, performance, state, and configuration of each CICS
Transaction Gateway (CTG) z/OS address space.  This file is
derived from the SMF type 111 CICS Transaction Gateway
interval record.
 
This file is shipped as active, but is only populated when a
GATEWAY ACTIVE statement is added to
prefix.MICS.PARMS(CICOPS). See section 7.3.2.6 for more
information about activating CTG record processing.
 
There is no CA MICS Accounting and Chargeback Option
interface for the CTGGSA file. The data in the file is
suitable for performance analysis and capacity planning
related to z/OS CICS Transaction Gateway address spaces.
 
The following sections describe the file's organization, list
the data elements maintained, and provide usage hints.
 
    1 - CTGGSA File Organization
    2 - CTGGSA Data Elements List
    3 - CTGGSA Usage Considerations
    4 - CTGGSA Retrieval Examples

5.3.1.1 CTGGSA File Organization

The table below identifies data elements by which the file is
sequenced and summarized in each timespan.  N/A indicates
that the file is not supported in a timespan.  At the DETAIL
level, data is sequenced but not summarized.
 
NOTE:  The timespans in which a file is supported are
defined by each installation when CA MICS is installed.
Therefore, this table has been generated as part of the
installation process to accurately reflect the CA MICS system
at your installation.

NOTE:  This file was generated with ESSENTIAL=ALL
       option in effect.  All data elements defined in
       the file are generated.
NOTE:  This file was generated with DERIVED=DEFault
       option in effect.  Whether data elements are
       kept on the file on auxiliary storage or not
       is controlled by the complex definition of the
       DERIVED option.
