5.2.3 HTTP Server Performance Suspend File (WEB_WP)


FILENAME = WEB_WP01

The WEB_WP Suspend File maintains information from the last
SMF type 103 subtype 2 interval record for each WebSphere
server.  Because SMF type 103 subtype 2 interval records
contain cummulative, rather than true interval, field values,
CA MICS must compare the previous interval record values with
current interval record values in order to compute true
interval metrics.

The WEB_WP suspend file records are used to maintain
continuity between successive executions of the CA MICS Web
Analyzer daily update runs.  This allows CA MICS to always
provide true interval metrics in each WebSphere Performance
(WEBWPR) file record.

The WEB_WP File is a permanent file of the CA MICS Web
Analyzer.  It is strictly for internal use and exists only at
the DETAIL timespan.
