3.1.2.3 TSO Network Activity


The TSO Network Activity Report summarizes daily and weekly
TCAM or VTAM performance communications network activity for
TSO terminals.

Additional uses for this report include the following:

   o  Measuring the results of TSO network tuning efforts.
   o  Identifying excessive TSO network traffic by time-of-
      day (peak load effects).
   o  Detecting wide fluctuations in TSO network load.
   o  Isolating unused communications paths or TSO terminals.
   o  Providing data to be used in adjusting host/NCP/cluster
      buffer sizes.
   o  Determining actual TSO communications path speeds.

You must run daily TSO Network Activity Reports with the TSO
Activity Report, using a standard increment of 15 minutes or
more.  Used together, the TSO Network Activity Report and the
TSO Activity Report can aid in network problem determination
and performance management efforts.  For example, by
comparing standard daily reports to one another, you can
identify and investigate periods of degraded TSO response and
high workload in the network.

Note: The Network Activity Report displays averages, peaks,
average as a percentage of peak, and session averages for
each column at the end of the daily report.


Figure 3-9 illustrates a sample Network Activity Report,
displaying both detail and summary information.
