Figure 2-15.01. Tandem CPU Planning Screen
Figure 2-15.01 shows the Tandem CPU Planning screen, which is
the main control screen for the Tandem CPU Resource Planning
Sample Application. It contains the following fields:
Summariza- The output summarization corresponds to the
tion level: combination of the primary and secondary
summarization levels. These control how the
output file is summarized in your capacity
planning database.
Input file The timespan (either DETAIL, DAYS, WEEKS or
timespan: MONTHS) of the TDMCPE and TDMSYP file that you
want to use as input when creating the capacity
planning database file.
Amount of The number of days, weeks or months of
data historical data to be in the CAPxxx01 cycle of
retained: the capacity planning database file. Any
historical observations older than what you
specify for this parameter are dropped from the
file during the file update.
Age of The number of days, weeks or months that you
oldest want to retain a forecast after it is generated.
forecast: Any forecast older than what you specify for
this parameter is dropped when a new forecast is
generated and saved.
History The number of cycles or versions of the
cycle: historical data you want to retain. A new cycle
is created when the file is updated and the
existing cycles are aged (for example, Cycle 01
is aged to Cycle 02 and Cycle 02 becomes Cycle
03).
Forecast The number of cycles or versions of the forecast
cycle: data you want to retain. A new cycle is created
when you specify forecast aging in one of the
workload forecasting routines and the existing
cycles are aged (for example, Cycle 01 is aged
to Cycle 02 and Cycle 02 becomes Cycle 03).
Database The database unit identifier(s) (up to fourteen
ID(s): units) that contain the TDMCPE and TDMSYP files
to be used with this Sample application. If you
are not sure where the TDMCPE and TDMSYP files
reside, type a question mark (?) in this field
to display a listing of the valid database unit
identifiers for this sample application.
Tandem The three options for defining Tandem System
System Category (see Section 2.15.1, Usage Guidelines).
Category
(CAPAPU):
Application The 1- to 40-character name for the CAPAPU data
unit title: element. This parameter is only available for
entry if you specify EXIT for the Tandem System
Category. If you specify CPUNUM as the Tandem
System Category, the title will be "CPU Number".
You cannot specify a value for title if CAPAPU
is NONE.
Specify If you want extended options, specify Y (YES),
extended and the Extended Options Menu (Figure 2-15.02)
options: is displayed.

Figure 2-15.02. Tandem CPU Planning Extended Options Menu
The extended options available with the Tandem CPU Resource
Planning Sample Application are:
Combine all You can combine SYSIDs in the capacity planning
SYSIDs into database file. Enter Y (YES) if you want data
a composite: for all of the SYSIDs to be summarized into a
single observation with the Composite SYSID
value.
Combine all You can combine zones, hours, and daynames in
zones/hours/ the capacity planning database file. The prompt
daynames for this field changes to zones, hours or
into a daynames depending on what you specify for the
composite: summary level parameter. Enter Y (YES) if you
want all of the zones, hours, and daynames to be
summarized into a single observation with the
composite value.
Specify Specify the SYSIDs and zones, hours or daynames
common data to be used for data selection from the CA MICS
selection input file(s). Enter Y (YES) to display the
parameters: Common Data Selection screen (Figure 2-15.03).
Enter R (RESET) to reset any selections you
previously made to SYSID and zone, hour or
dayname. The field defaults to N (NO),
specifying no common data selection parameters.
Specify You can use your own SAS statements to select
global data data from the CA MICS input file(s). Enter Y
selection (YES) to display the SAS System Statements
exit: screen (Figure 2-15.04). Enter R (RESET) to
reset any selections you previously made to the
default of no user-specified data selection.
The field defaults to N (NO) specifying that you
are not coding a data selection exit.
Specify You can assign a CAPAPU value when Tandem System
CAPAPU Category is set to EXIT on the Tandem CPU
derivation Planning Screen (Figure 2-15.01). Enter Y (Yes)
SAS to display the SAS System Statements screen.
statements: Enter R (RESET) to reset any SAS Statements you
previously entered for CAPAPU assignment. This
option is available only if you specify EXIT for
CAPAPU parameter on the Tandem CPU Planning
screen. The field defaults to N (NO) specifying
that Tandem System Category is not set to EXIT.
Notes If you have entered notes associated with the
report capacity planning file definition, a Yes in this
enabled: field prints the note as part of file updating.
Contents A Yes in this field prints the contents of the
reports capacity planning file as part of file updating.

Figure 2-15.03. Common Data Selection Screen - Tandem CPU Planning
The Common Data Selection screen (Figure 2-15.03) allows you
to define the following data selection criteria:
SYSID: The SYSIDs you want to include in your capacity
planning database file. You can specify a
maximum of 15 one- to four-character SYSIDs.
Leave this parameter blank to include data for
all SYSIDs.
Zone: Specify up to nine zones to be included in the
capacity planning database file. Leave this
parameter blank to include data for all zones.
Hour: Specify five hours, or range of hours, to
include in the capacity planning database file.
Selection of this parameter is valid only if you
specify the DETAIL, DAYS, or WEEKS timespan on
the Tandem CPU Planning screen (Figure 2-15.01).
Leave this parameter blank to include data for
all hours. You must enter singular hour values
on the left side of the dash.
Dayname: Specify up to five daynames to include in the
capacity planning database file. Leave this
parameter blank to include all days. Input the
first unique characters and the application will
fill in the rest. Selection of this parameter
is only valid when the input timespan is DETAIL
or DAYS.

define your own data selection logic. You can code any valid
SAS Statement as described in the SAS manuals. The %MACRO
SELECT and %MEND SELECT statements are already provided and
field protected to prevent modification.
