6.4.2 Analyzer Files with CPU Time Measurements

On z/OS mainframes, CPU time for z/OS workloads can be
accumulated on both standard and specialized processing
units.  Specialized processor units are processors such as
the Integrated Facility for Applications (IFA), also known as
the zAAP processor.

Primary Analyzer Files with CPU Measurement Data

The primary files listed below contain all CPU time
measurements recorded for z/OS workloads at the address space
level.
