3.1.2.5 Weekly IMS Outage Report - Availability

This report quantifies the IMS outage incurred on an hourly
basis for the identified day and computing system.

The management objective to be tracked in evaluating the
availability of the IMS system, is the number of minutes IMS
incurred outage within an hour of the day.

Figure 3-9 illustrates the Weekly IMS Outage Report based on
a management objective of no outage time (0 minutes) per
hour.

The following user options apply to this report:

Hourly IMS Outage Limits: The target number of uptime minutes
per hour, generally set to 60, and the downtime objective per
hour, which is generally set to 0 minutes.

    _IMSUT and _IMSDT define the hourly uptime target and
         hourly downtime reference line, respectively, for
         daily and weekly reporting.

    MACRO _IMSUT 60 %
    MACRO _IMSDT  0 %

A full description of the user options is provided in section
3.1.4.1, Report Options.

Figure 3-9 quantifies the outage incurred by horizontally
representing the hours of the seven days and vertically
charting the number of outage minutes incurred.

The management objective is to not incur any outage time; any
time a charted bar appears the IMS Outage objective was
missed for that hour in the week.  In Figure 3-9 the
reference line is shown at 0 on the vertical axis.
