4.4.4.10 Missing Data Elements Report Utility



---------------- Missing Data Element Report Utility ----------------- Command ===>

This utility generates a report across all units, timespans and online files within a component, and reports on those elements that contain missing values 100% of the time. These elements may be candidates for deactivation, but we strongly urge you to use caution in deactivating elements via cluster codes assigned to releases that you may not have migrated to yet. To begin, enter a 3-character component identifier below. You will get an opportunity to exclude units on a subsequent panel. CA MICS Component ===> ___ (ccc)

Select a component, then press ENTER to continue. A list of units where the component is installed is presented to allow you to EXCLUDE units from the analysis. ------------------- Missing Data Elements Report Utility --- Row 1 to n of n Command ===>

The Missing Data Elements Report Utility accepts a CA MICS
 component identifier (for example, RMF) and identifies all
 units in the CA MICS complex where the component is
 installed.  The database files that are associated with the
 identified units are examined to identify any data elements
 that have missing values in all timespans where the data
 elements are active.
 
 After the analysis is complete, a report is produced:
 
 o Section 1 shows component files where every data element
   has a non-missing value in at least one observation.
 
 o Section 2 shows component files with data elements that
   have missing values in all observations.
 

 To produce the Missing Data Elements Report, select option 10
 from the CA MICS Administrator Utilities menu (MWF 5;4;A).

 Enter the CA MICS component as described here and press
 ENTER to begin the report generation.

 You are provided with a list of units where the component is
 installed. By default, the databases of all units are
 examined. To exclude a unit from consideration, place an "X"
 next to the unit to be excluded. Then press ENTER to refresh
 the list of units. When the list is complete, either press
 PF3 or type the END command to generate the report JCL.
 
 Note: CA MICS data elements are activated at the complex
 level. In general, you should allow all unit databases to be
 selected. Only exclude units if they contain data that is not
 representative of your normal configuration.  Consider a
 situation where the component you have selected is deployed
 in three units, A, B, and P,  but is no longer used in unit
 B.  If the component files in unit B are still in that unit's
 database, the data might not represent your current cccGENIN
 configuration and the data values might not represent your
 current environment.  In this example, you would want to
 exclude unit B from the analysis.
 
 After making any JCL modification such as on the JOB
 statement, enter the SUBMIT command to submit the job.
 
 The report that is generated has two possible sections:
 
 Section 1: Files where every data element has a value in at
            least one observation.
 
 Section 2: Files where at least one data element has missing
            values in all timespans and observations.
 
 Note: If no component files meet the section criteria, that
 report section is not generated. For example, if all files
 contain at least one data element that has missing values in
 all timespans and observations, section 1 is be produced.
 
 If a particular file has zero (0) observations in all
 timespans, it is not included in the report, but is noted in
 the MICSLOG as shown here:
 
   BAS00196I ===> File: HARCCU **NO OBS**
 
 If all component files have zero (0) observations in all
 timespans, MICSLOG will note that the report is not
 generated.
 
 Each element that is listed in Section 2 shows the units and
 timespans where the data element was present and found to
 have missing values in every database observation.
 
 As the job is running, the MICSLOG shows progress as first
 the individual databases are examined for component files,
 and next as each component file is examined for data elements
 with missing values.

 A sample of REPORT SECTION 1, executed for the CICS
 component, is shown.  Section 1 shows files where every
 data element, across all file instances where the elements
 were active, had at least one observation with a non-missing
 value.  These files are ideally configured.

 A sample of the beginning of REPORT SECTION 2, executed
 for the CICS component, is shown.  Section 2 shows files
 where at least one data element had missing values in every
 observation across all file instances where the element is
 active.  Review these file elements to determine if you
 should keep them activated.
