5.4.12 Report Class General Execution Delay File (WLM_ED)

The Report Class General Execution Delay File quantifies
sampled execution state information by optional report class.
This is a parallel file that contains a subset of the same
data elements as the Service Class General Execution Delay
File (WLMSED).  Measurements in this file include how often
work was using or waiting for CPU, waiting for auxiliary
storage access, idle, or in some other condition.
Observations are written to this file only if the
measurements are available.
 
The WLM_ED file is commonly used in conjunction with these
related files:
 
  o  WLM_EA - Report Class
  o  WLM_EC - Report Class Resource Consumption
  o  WLM_EM - Report Class Response Time
 
Information in the WLM_ED file is derived from the type 72
subtype 3 RMF Workload Activity and Storage Data record.
 

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