6.3.2.1 Example 1 - All Sources (except CA NetSpy)
BASIC ASSUMPTIONS
The estimates in Figures 6-9 and 6-10 are based on data
processed from all of the sources that the Analyzer accepts,
except for CA NetSpy. The sources for the estimates are:
NPM 1.4 Network - SMF Type 28 Record
NPM 1.4 Session - SMF Type 28 Record
NetView (NLDM) - SMF Type 39 Record
NetView (NPDA) - SMF Type 37 Record
Your estimates will be lower if you are not processing data
from all sources.
o When the CA MICS Network Analyzer is installed, you
determine the sort sequence of the SNTPSU, NVSNSA,
NVSNSC, NVSRTE, and NVSTRM Files by setting account
fields as part of the sort key. You usually choose
terminal name or cluster controller name (e.g., 3174) as
the lowest level sort key. Depending upon this choice,
each observation in each summarized level of the file
represents the activity and response for a terminal or a
controller.
The choice of this sequence is very important to the
overall space required by CA MICS SNA. In Figure 6-11,
we assume that the sort sequence of this file is by
terminal name. Total space requirements may be as much
as 25 percent less than the figures shown if files with
accounting fields are kept at the cluster controller
level, depending on your exact configuration.
o Average ACCTs represents the average number of active
terminals since we assume that the user-defined sort
sequence for these files results in an observation for
each terminal. The average is computed as 25 percent of
the total number of terminals (represented by the
Terminals field on the chart) since it is based on a 24
hour period.
o This space estimate represents 1 NETWRKID with 1 SYSID
and the following number of SAS files per time-span:
