If you cannot start MWF from a standard ISPF menu, ask your
CA MICS System Administrator for the name of the CA MICS
Workstation Facility CLIST. For purposes of this discussion,
we will assume that it is sharedprefix.MICS.CLIST(MWF).
First, sign on to TSO. From the TSO READY prompt, type
EX 'sharedprefix.MICS.CLIST(MWF)'
If you are a new CA MICS user, you will see the Welcome New
CA MICS User panel shown in Figure 1-2. Your CA MICS System
Administrator may have specified a default Unit Name or
Volume Serial. If so, press ENTER to allocate the data set
for your user tables. Depending on your site's requirements
for allocating permanent data sets for TSO users, the Unit
Name and Volume Serial is either optional or required. If
you need to change the Unit Name or Volume Serial, enter the
correct information after the prompts and press ENTER. MWF
allocates the data set for your user tables and displays the
primary CA MICS Workstation Facility (MWF) panel, which is
shown in Figure 1-9.
If this is not the first time you have used MICF, you will go
directly to the primary CA MICS Workstation Facility (MWF)
panel.

Figure 1-10. Management Support Applications Panel
The Performance Manager panel (Figure 1-11) is displayed when you select Option 4, Performance Manager, from the Management Support Applications panel. This panel allows you to define a new inquiry or select an inquiry from the Shared catalog or your private catalog. You can optionally modify your MICF options or review reports and Graphics generated by previously executed inquiries. Select option 1 to display the Performance Reporting panel (Figure 1-12). Select Option 2 to display the Performance Analysis Tools panel (Figure 1-13). If you would like to view previously saved performance queries or wish to view the shared performance queries delivered with the product select option 3 to display the Performance Manager Catalog panel (Figure 1-14). /---------------------------- Performance Manager ---------------------------\ |Option ===> | | | | 0 - MICF Options | | Review / modify MICF parameters and default options. | | | | 1 - Performance Reporting | | Compose / execute a new private performance inquiry. | | | | 2 - Performance Analysis Tools | | Explore performance data characteristics and simulate | | initiator structures. | | | | 3 - Performance Manager Catalog | | Modify / execute previously built inquiries saved | | in either Shared or Private Performance catalogs. | | | | 4 - Reports and Graphics | | Review printed reports and color graphics output | | from previously executed inquires. | | | | T - Tutorial | | | | X - Exit | | | \-\-\-\-\------------------------------------------------------------------------------/ Figure 1-11.
