3.1.3.4 Monthly IMS Service Report – Short Activity

This report quantifies the IMS service for short activity
provided on a zone basis by month for each computing system.

The management objective to be tracked in evaluating the
speed and consistency of short IMS activity is a percentage
of the number of short IMS interactions that were satisfied
within a specified number of seconds.

Figure 3-13 illustrates the Monthly IMS Service Report for
Short Activity based on a management objective of satisfying
95% of all short IMS interactions within 5 seconds.

The following user options apply to this report:

Short Response Objective:  The percentage of short IMS
responses that were satisfied within a specified number of
seconds to reflect the installation's response objective for
short IMS activity (e.g., 95% within 5 seconds).

    _IMSPSR and _IMSSSR define the percentage target, and
         second threshold, respectively, (e.g., 95% within 5
         seconds), for short IMS response time, used in
         daily, weekly, and monthly reports.

    MACRO _IMSPSR 95 %
    MACRO _IMSSSR  5 %

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

Figure 3-13 quantifies the service provided by horizontally
representing zone within month and vertically charting the
percentage of short IMS interactions satisfied within the
specified number of seconds, as identified in the title.

The management objective for short IMS service is shown by a
dashed horizontal reference line printed across the chart.
In Figure 3-13 the reference line is shown at the 95% level
of the vertical axis.  Any zone for which the charted bar
falls below this reference line signals that the short IMS
service objective was missed for that zone in the month.
