5.2.5 WAS Server Interval File (WEBSIF)

The WAS Server Interval File (WEBSIF) is derived from the SMF
type 120 subtype 3 records.  The server interval record is
written at the installation-specified interval.  The purpose
of this record is to record the activity that is running
inside a WebSphere Application Server.  It contains aggregate
information about each activity that ran inside the server
instance during the interval.

If a server has more than one server instance, then a record
for each server instance is written and the records must be
merged to get a complete picture of the work that ran inside
the server.

The following sections describe the file's organization, list
data elements maintained, and provide usage hints.
