3.3.1.3.13 Under/Over Utilized Line Analysis

INTENDED USE:
 
   To identify, through a series of four reports, which lines
   in the network are underutilized, overutilized, or
   marginally-utilized, as determined by user-defined
   utilization thresholds.  This inquiry indicates
   overutilized lines that may be causing performance
   problems and identifies underutilized lines whose
   resources might be combined with others to reduce the
   total number of lines in the network.
 
FORMAT:
 
   Each report is approximately 132 characters wide and is
   best suited for hardcopy review.  However, you can also
   review the reports online.  The first report provides an
   overview of the count of network lines for each of the
   respective categories of under, marginally, and
   overutilized.  The second report lists the underutilized
   lines in descending order, indicating line name, NCP name,
   hours underutilized, total hours measured, line speed, and
   data transfer mode (full or half duplex).  The third
   report provides similar information for marginally-
   utilized lines.  The fourth report lists the overutilized
   lines in descending order, showing line name, NCP name,
   hours overutilized, hours underutilized, and marginally-
   utilized, maximum percents received busy and send busy
   respectively, link speed, and data transfer mode.  In
   reports two through four, the information is summarized
   and presented by NETWRKID and ranked (in descending order)
   by line utilization.


INQUIRY ID:

   SNTLDS - Under/Over Utilized Line Analysis

DATA SOURCE (Files/Timespan):

   SNTNCL - Days

DATA ELEMENTS USED:

   ENDTS, STARTTS, NETNAME, NCPNAME, NCLMXRLB, NCLMXSLB,
   NCLPCLBS, NCLNRLLS, NCLNRSLS, NETWRKID, ZONE

CALCULATIONS:

   None

USAGE CONSIDERATIONS:

   The user defines the thresholds (as run-time options) for
   overutilization, underutilization, and marginal
   utilization.  This inquiry will never categorize a line as
   underutilized or marginally utilized if, during at least
   one measured interval, line utilization exceeds the
   client-defined threshold for overutilization.

   All cycles are summarized together as a data range rather
   than reported by individual cycle or by year, month, day,
   and zone as other CA MICS reports do.
