The System Incident Report (shown in Figure 3-3) provides a concise and effective reporting of the system and operator activity, starting with the software definitions at the time of IPL and continuing up to the current time. It produces a precise report tracing the system actions as recorded by SMF. The report is particularly effective in resolving performance and availability problems caused by improper system configuration. The Operations Incident File (OPSOPI) in the Operations Information Area maintains a record for each SMF-recorded incident. The reporting process formats the contents of these records based on user-specified selection criteria. A separate report is printed for each SYSID in the file. Each page heading gives the SYSID and the date of the first record. Every date change is printed in the time column and every hour change is separated by a dashed line. A report printed with the system defaults starts reporting at the time of the last IPL in the file and continues to the end of the file. The first page or two show the conditions at the time of the IPL, and succeeding pages show changes to the initial conditions. A close look at this information shows the system software configuration for any point in time.
