Depending on your CA MICS installation options,
these files may not be active in the MONTHS
timespan. Check with your CA MICS Administrator
if you have problems when trying to use this
report.
Function: This facility allows the storage administrator to
monitor key storage indicators on a month-by-month
basis. These indicators enable accurate
projections of future storage needs, both at the
application level and the system level. The
indicators reported by this facility are also
useful for detecting trends that could indicate
potential problems or areas in which storage
resources are not being used efficiently. These
reports, along with the Daily Application Resource
Usage reports, provide both a long view and a
short view of storage capacity and performance
problems.
The ability to process data from multiple sources
makes the reports produced even more valuable.
Options allow the user to target a single storage
media, such as real DASD or HSM backup storage, or
to group data from multiple media on the same
chart. This second type of reporting is useful
when analyzing the flow of data across multiple
Types of storage media.
The types of data that may be selected for
reporting include the number of data sets, amount
of space being allocated, percentages of data sets
and space in certain categories, and the amount of
allocated versus used space.
Features: Summarization options allow you to analyze the
data based on its owner (using one or more of the
CA MICS accounting fields), its SMS storage class,
its SMS management class, or its location (such as
real DASD, or HSM level 1 migration).
Data filtering allows you to include data from
selected summary groups. For example, you could
choose to report on specific departments, groups
or individuals, or on a specific SMS class.
Output reports from this facility include tabular
reports, printer plots, or color graphic plots.
When plots are requested, up to nine different
elements may be plotted on the same chart.
SMS
Issues: The ability to summarize by an SMS storage or
management class makes it easy to monitor the
long-term activity within each of your defined
classes. Many of the elements you can select for
reporting are useful for monitoring an SMS
migration effort, or to make sure SMS is operating
correctly after migration is complete.
