Many of the data elements used in the VAX/VMS CPU Resource
Planning Sample Application database file have the same
meaning and derivation as their identically named
counterparts in the CA MICS DEMMOD and DEMSPR Files. These
data elements are named MODnnnnn and SPRnnnnn respectively,
plus the DURATION and INTERVLS elements.

The data elements that are derived from the CA MICS database
and used by the VAX/VMS CPU Resource Planning Sample
Application are calculated as follows:
 
USRPCTOT:    The percentage of CPU busy time spent in USER
             Mode.  It is calculated by the formula:
 
                 IF MODCPUTM GT 0 THEN
                 USRPCTOT=MODUSRTM*100/MODCPUTM;

VUPS:        The relative performance (VUP) rating for the
             CPU, before adjustment, as specified to the
             CA MICS SYSID parameter for each SYSID (node).
             It is calculated by the formula:
 
                 IF (SPRCPUTM GT 0) THEN
                 VUPS=SPRCPUNI/SPRCPUTM;
 
             This formula extracts the VUPS value component
             from the SPRCPUNI element on the CA MICS
             database.

The additional data elements that are present if CPU time
adjustment is specified are derived as follows:
 
BASECPU:     The value that was specified for the Base CPU
             model parameter on the CPU Time Adjustment
             Parameters screen shown in Figure 2-16.05.

VUPSA:       The value that was specified for the Base CPU
             VUP rating on the CPU Time Adjustment Parameters
             screen shown in Figure 2-16.05.

ADJnnnnn     The adjusted value data elements are named
             ADJnnnnn and where the nnnnn corresponds to the
             name of the unadjusted element from the DEMMOD
             file.  The adjustment is performed as follows:
 
   IF (SPRCPUTM GT 0) AND (VUPSA GT 0) THEN DO;
 
    ADJCOMTM=MODCOMTM*(VUPS/VUPSA); Compatibility Mode Time
    ADJPCCOM=MODPCCOM*(VUPS/VUPSA); Compatibility Mode Pct

    ADJCPUTM=MODCPUTM*(VUPS/VUPSA); Total CPU Time
    ADJPCCPU=MODPCCPU*(VUPS/VUPSA); Total CPU Pct

    ADJEXETM=MODEXETM*(VUPS/VUPSA); Executive Mode Time
    ADJPCEXE=MODPCEXE*(VUPS/VUPSA); Executive Mode Pct

    ADJINTTM=MODINTTM*(VUPS/VUPSA); Interrupt Stack Time
    ADJPCINT=MODPCINT*(VUPS/VUPSA); Interrupt Stack Pct

    ADJKERTM=MODKERTM*(VUPS/VUPSA); Kernel Mode Time
    ADJPCKER=MODPCKER*(VUPS/VUPSA); Kernel Mode Pct

    ADJMPSTM=MODMPSTM*(VUPS/VUPSA); Multi-Processor Sync Time
    ADJPCMPS=MODPCMPS*(VUPS/VUPSA); Multi-Processor Sync Pct

    ADJSUPTM=MODSUPTM*(VUPS/VUPSA); Supervisor Mode Time
    ADJPCSUP=MODPCSUP*(VUPS/VUPSA); Supervisor Mode Pct

    ADJUSRTM=MODUSRTM*(VUPS/VUPSA); User Mode Time
    ADJPCUSR=MODPCUSR*(VUPS/VUPSA); User Mode Pct
