B.1 Quick Start Tutorial for CPU Planning


Assumptions:

o You have a basic knowledge of MICF

o You have reviewed sections 2.0 and 2.1 of the CA MICS
  Capacity Planner.

o Multiple months of HARCPU and WLMSEC.  You must omit CPU
  adjustment if the WLMSEC file is not available.  Data must
  be available online or on CA MICS archive tapes.

Introduction:

This z/OS Processor Planning sample exercise provides
processor utilization statistics for performance analysis and
can serve as input for future forecasts for capacity planning
This procedure does not discuss option parameters such as
Common Data Selection (Figure 2-3).  These parameters can
also be specified to further subset the data.
