2.5.3 Standard Output

 
The capacity planning database file that is generated by the
XCF Resource Planning Sample Application contains the
following data elements:
 
A.  Data elements common to all CA MICS Capacity Planner
    database files:
 
    SYSID
    ZONE or HOUR or DAYNAME
    YEAR
    MONTH or WEEK or MNTHDAY
    DATE
B.  Data elements unique to the XCF Resource Planning Sample
    Application database file:
 
    1.  Character format data elements
 
        CAPAPU   - SYSPLEX Identifier
        CAPAPU2  - XCF System Name
        CAPAPU3  - XCF Group Name
        CAPAPU4  - XCF Member Name
        CAPAPU5  - XCF Member Residency
    2.  Numeric format data elements
 
        XCMTORCV - Signals Received
        XCMTOSNT - Signals Sent
        TOTSGNLS - Total signals sent & received by that
                   instance of the MEMBER
        ALLSGNLS - Total signals sent & received for the
                   SYSPLEX, as recorded by that RMF
    3.  Percentage format data elements
 
        PCTSGNLS - Percentage of all signals that this
                   instance of the MEMBER sent and received
Some of the data elements used in the XCF Resource Planning
Sample Application database file have the same meaning as
their identically named counterparts in the CA MICS database.
The data elements that are derived from the CA MICS database
and used by the XCF Resource Planning Sample Application are
calculated as follows:
 
TOTSGNLS:    The total number of signals sent & recieved by
             this instance of the MEMBER.  Members typically
             reside on multiple MVS images within the
             Enhanced SYSPLEX.  Typically, there will be one
             instance of the MEMBER for each MVS image that
             is part of the Enhanced SYSPLEX.  The formula
             used to derive this element is:
 
             TOTSGNLS = SUM(XCMTORCV,XCMTOSNT)
ALLSGNLS:    The total number of signals sent & recieved by
             all members within the Enhanced SYSPLEX.  This
             element is derived by summarizing TOTSGNLS by
             recording SYSID.

PCTSGNLS:    The amount of signalling done by this instance
             of the member as a percentage of all messaging
             being done in the Enhanced SYSPLEX.
 
             PCTSGNLS = 100 * TOTSGNLS / ALLSNGNLS
