2.5.6.4 VSM System Storage Usage Plot
The VSM System Storage Usage Plot shows the use of virtual
storage by the entire system. It can be generated for the
DETAIL, DAYS, WEEKS, or MONTHS timespans if they are present
in your CA MICS database. Note that the VSM System Storage
Usage Plot obtains its data from the SCPVSM Files. If you
are unsure of the timespans supported at your installation,
consult your CA MICS System Administrator.
The VSM System Storage Usage Plot is produced using a series
of six panels. Only the first panel is required. The others
are used to specify additional options that are normally
defaulted.
Figure 2-188 shows a VSM Virtual Storage System Usage Plot
inquiry panel. The fields common to all Virtual Storage
Management Analysis routines are described in Section 2.5.6.
The following are general comments on this panel.
In addition to the timespan qualifier, you have the option
of selecting summaries by ZONE and HOUR. Summarization by
HOUR can be done if you are using the DAYS or WEEKS
timespans. Summarization can be specified with the Plot by
hour and Generate a plot for each value of Zone options.
If you specify the DAYS timespan and summarization by HOUR,
and if you request multiple cycles, a separate plot is
produced for each day. If you do not specify a summarization
parameter, the plot is summarized to the timespan level
(i.e., MONTHS is summarized to the month, WEEKS to the week,
DAYS to the day, and DETAIL to the RMF interval).
There are five other panels in this series that you can use
to specify additional options that are normally defaulted.
They are:
o Extended Options Menu
o Global Data Selection
o Alternate Input File
o Save Selected Input Observations
o Extended Color Options Menu
For a description of the Extended Options Menus refer to
Section 1.4.3.6, Specifying Common Extended Options.
