3.3.3.3.1 Problem Description

 
For this case study, a resource element file was created to
track the print load of seven remote printers for a shared
spool JES2 installation.
 
The remote printers used in this study are listed below:
 
 
    Remote Number                 Location
    =============      ===============================
 
         0             Computer Center, JES LOCAL
         12            Engineering
         34            Systems Programming
         80            Tech Services
         91            Production Control
         93            Refinery
         96            Application Development
 
 
The case study addresses the following areas:
 
o  Summarizing multiple ZONEs and SYSIDs
 
o  Using a selection macro to limit the volume of data
   processed by the program.  Rather than summarizing the
   data for all the remote printers, a selection macro
   excludes observations for remote printers other than the
   seven being considered in the study.
