Source: ACS Test Case Library
ACS Testing Output Report File
Function: This facility analyzes the results of the ACS
routine testing process to make sure your ACS
routines are working correctly. Another CA MICS
StorageMate facility, the ACS Test Case Creation
facility, is used to build a library of ACS test
cases from your CA MICS data. That library is read
by the ISMF ACS Test Facility, and each test case
is passed to your production/test ACS Routine(s).
The test results are written by ISMF to a report
output file. This facility reads both the test
case library and the testing output file, merges
them, and provides a number of reports useful in
evaluating the operation of the ACS routines.
The group reports summarize the results of each ACS
routine, showing the various class/group names that
were assigned by the routine, and the number of
data sets assigned to each of those names. Space
values are also reported, to assist in the space
planning needed for the various groups.
Further information about the use of the ACS Test
Facility is available in the facility instructions
at the end of this section.
Features: Options allow you to restrict reporting to only
those ACS routines specified. For example, when
executing the ISMF Test Facility you can specify
that all four types of ACS routines be executed
(Storage Class, Management Class, Data Class,
Storage Group), but when running reports you can
only be interested in results of the Data Class
routine.
Up to eight different reports may be generated by
this facility, each showing a different view of the
test results, or showing a different summarization.
The reports can be selected in any combination.
SMS
Issues: An important phase of any SMS conversion project is
making sure your ACS routines are operating
correctly and achieving their desired results.
This problem is no less critical after SMS
conversion, as regular maintenance to the ACS
routines will still be necessary. Because of their
critical nature, accuracy of ACS routines is just
as important as the accuracy of any system exit.
Using this facility to carefully analyze your test
results will help insure your success in this
critical task.
COLUMN DESCRIPTIONS
SYSID
This value appears at the top of each page and
identifies the system to which this data applies.
The System Identifier (SYSID) is copied from the
CA MICS data used in creating the test cases.
Storage Class Name
Management Class Name
Data Class Name
Storage Group Name
The first column of the report will have one of
these titles, indicating the ACS routine to which
the statistics on the report apply. A separate
report will be produced for each ACS routine for
which test data was found in the input report file.
The values under the column heading indicate the
various names assigned by the ACS routine. A value
of '(NONE)' indicates that no class/group name was
assigned by the ACS routine to the test cases in
that group. A value of '*RC=nnnn' indicates a non-
zero return code from the ACS routine, where 'nnnn'
is the numeric representation of the return code.
Number of Data Sets
A numeric value indicating the number of test cases
assigned by the ACS routine to this class or group
name.
Percent of Data Sets
The percentage of all test cases for which this ACS
routine was called that were assigned to this
particular class or group.
Space Allocated M-Bytes
The amount of space, reported in megabytes, that is
being allocated by the data sets that were assigned
to this particular class or group. This value is
calculated using data set allocation statistics
extracted from CA MICS at the time the test cases
were created.
Percent of Megabytes
Based on the total megabytes allocated by all the
data sets for which this ACS routine was invoked,
the percentage of that space allocated by the data
sets assigned to this particular class or group.
Minimum Size K-Bytes
The smallest amount of space allocated by any one
of the data sets assigned to this class or group,
expressed in kilobytes.
Maximum Size K-Bytes
The largest amount of space allocated by any one of
the data sets assigned to this class or group,
expressed in kilobytes.
Average Size K-Bytes
The average amount of space allocated by the data
sets assigned to this class or group, expressed in
kilobytes. This is calculated by dividing the
total space allocated for all data sets in the
group by the number of data sets assigned to the
group.
