The monthly report is produced as a standard process in the CA MICS monthly job stream. The report is produced from the 12 most recent cycles (01-12) of the Service Class Resource Consumption (WLMSEC) file, maintained in the database's MONTHS. The SAS CHART procedure is used to produce the desired reports. The heading lines contain the installation name (for example, XYZ Manufacturing, Inc.), the frequency identification (that is, Monthly WLM Management Objectives), the objective being reported, the computing system (that is, SYSID) on which the WLM activity was measured, and the zone number and name. The bar chart illustrates the service class, the month, and the measurement being reported (service units). A horizontal axis is used to chart the measurement being reported, and it is with this axis that the management objective for this category is defined. The horizontal axis is first established through the SAS CHART AXIS option, which identifies the highest value represented on the horizontal axis. The SAS CHART REF option formats a dashed line down the page to illustrate the management objective. Consider the chart of the resource consumption by service class (see Figure 3-26). The title describes the management objective as within 30% of the total service units for the month. The measurement that would be charted is the percentage of resource consumed (service units) for each service class by month. The horizontal axis, therefore, would be set up for a maximum value of 100 (for 100%) and the horizontal reference line would be printed at the 30% level. This reference line then clearly depicts how the objective was satisfied or missed for each month. Note especially that the location of the reference line may be rounded for purposes of scaling the axis. Each horizontal line may have a unit value of 2.5%, so a reference line specification of 32% would not fall directly on a vertical axis coordinate. In this case, the 32% line would be shown as a line at 30%. The member MNRMFMBO in the sharedprefix.MICS.SOURCE library contains the SAS statements for producing the chart report. To define your data center objectives, see section 3.3.4, WLM Report Options.
