5.2.5 TSO Terminal Activity File (TSO_TA)


The TSO Terminal Activity File (TSO_TA) contains data that
quantifies the VTAM/TCAM terminal service (response), load,
and access for defined intervals of time.

The TSO_TA file is effective for analyzing hardware
utilization and the placement of new terminals in the
network.

The TSO_TA file is derived from the TSOTSU file's DETAIL
time-span.  By default, the TSO_TA file is delivered
inactive.

The following sections describe the file's organization, list
the data elements maintained, and provide usage hints.
