00251: Prime-Time TSO User Total Service Objective Missed

SAS FILE NAME     DAYS.TSOTSU01

SEVERITY          Critical      (SEVERITY='C')

PURPOSE      Identifies the hours during prime time when
             users' response time did not meet the
             installation defined total response service
             objective.

RATIONALE    An installation can set a service objective for
             users as a percent of all responses which will
             be completed within a certain time.  Setting the
             service objective this way recognizes the
             importance of consistency of response, which is
             not reflected in an average.

DEFINITION   This exception is detected when an individual
             user's response for an hour falls below the
             installation objective.

MODIFICATION  define the installation service objective (the
              percent of responses within a certain number of
              seconds), according to the following
              conventions:

    seconds     The number of seconds in the service
                objective is specified.  An objective of five
                seconds would appear as:

                   SECONDS = 5

    percent     The target percentage that is associated with
                the seconds given above (e.g., 90% within
                five seconds) would appear as:

                   OBJECT = 90

    number-of-responses  The minimum number of total response
                         events for which this exception is
                         to be considered would appear as:

                            EVENTS = 1000

    prime time  The hour range and days of the week to be
                included in the exception are specified.  The

                as:

                   AND ( 8 <=HOUR AND HOUR<= 18 )

                The days of the week are represented by the
                first three characters of their names.  They
                must be enclosed in quotes and separated with
                ORs.  Prime time specified as MONDAY through
                FRIDAY would appear as:
