3.3 Management Objective Reports

The management objective reports for the Batch Information
Area are produced on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis and
are described in that order within this section.  No reports
are available for the Operations Information Area.

The SAS source code for the Batch Management Objective
Reports is contained in three members in MICS.SOURCE:

    DYSMFMBO - Daily Batch Management Objective Reports
    WKSMFMBO - Weekly Batch Management Objective Reports
    MNSMFMBO - Monthly Batch Management Objective Reports

User-defined options are provided to specify data selection
(time, zones, etc.), define the applicable management
objective values, and specify the scales of the graphic
report representations.

These options are specified as SAS MACRO statements and are
contained in sharedprefix.MICS.SOURCE(#SMFMOBJ).  The options
are briefly described in the sections on the reports to which
they pertain.  Section 3.3.4, Running the Batch Management
Objective Reports, presents a more detailed description of
how to tailor the options to your installation.

The user-defined options are:

   o  Hourly Selection Range for Daily Reports -    the start
      and end hours of the day that are to be included in the
      daily batch reports.

   o  Hourly Selection Range for Weekly Reports -   the start
      and end hours of the day that are to be included in the
      weekly batch reports.

   o  Daily Jobs Initiated - the target and maximum number of
      jobs submitted per hour.  The target amount is used for
      a reference line on the graph and the maximum is used
      to set the maximum value on the graph's vertical axis.

   o  Daily Job Service - the target and maximum percentage
      of jobs that have met or exceeded their turnaround
      objective.  This option is used in both the daily and
      weekly reports.

   o  Daily Batch Service Unit Consumption -   the target and
      maximum number of service units consumed per hour by
      batch.  The target amount is used for a reference line
      on the graph and the maximum is used to set the maximum
      value on the graph's vertical axis.

   o  Zone Selection for Monthly Reporting -     the zone or
      range of zones that is to be included in the monthly
      batch reports.  Normally all zones should be reported;
      therefore, the range should be 1 to 9.  The batch
      reports may be limited to the range of zones required.

   o  Monthly Job Service - the target and maximum percentage
      of jobs that have met or exceeded their turnaround
      objective by zone within month.

   o  Monthly Batch Service Unit Consumption - the target and
      maximum number of service units consumed per zone
      within month by batch.  The target amount is used for a
      reference line on the graph and the maximum is used to
      set the maximum value on the graph's vertical axis.
