13.2.6.1.1 Control Parameters

Using a short set of menus that are described in Section 1.5       
of this guide, you will arrive at the Resource Component           
Analysis screen shown in Figure 13-2.02.
                          
This figure shows the control parameters that we used to
generate the Resource Component Analysis query in this case
study.

 Figure 13-2.02.  Resource Component Analysis Case Study Control Parameters

Note that in this case study the analyst previously generated
two capacity planning files.  The first, APU, contains a data
element, CPUADBTM, which represents the total systemwide CPU
time, normalized to an IBM 9672-R95.  This file and data
element are specified on the control screen as the Primary
CAP file and Analysis element respectively.  The second file,
WKL, contains the data elements that represent the CPU time
consumed by each of the workloads running on the system.
This file and the corresponding data elements are specified
in the "Select Elements from" list and contain the elements
for this case study. Note that the CPU times contained in the
Workload definition file have been normalized as well.

The focus of this study is on a SYSID of SYS1 and a Zone of
1.

For the first execution of this case study, all of the
elements (workloads) listed under "Select Elements from" will
be selected by the analyst. Subsequent executions will be
made with just those workloads that demonstrate a significant
Relative Importance score.
