3.2.1 DASD Response Time Components



The DASD Response Time Components inquiry produces a stacked
bar chart, broken down to connect time, disconnect time,
pending time and IOS queue time.  One chart is produced per
LCU.  The chart is in color graphics format.

This inquiry produces no output unless the data is from the
previous day.

INTENDED USE:

The chart can be used to determine the hours of the day when
DASD response time is not satisfactory for an LCU.  The
hour-by-hour trend of response times, by component, may
assist in determining why it is unsatisfactory.

Note:  Because this is a color graphics chart, no sample of
the chart is provided.
REPORT FORMAT:

In the stacked bar chart produced, each vertical bar
represents an hour of the day.  Response time is represented
by the height of each bar.
