Modifications

The following modifications can be made to the RMFSRV query:

• You can use the WLM_EC and WLM_ED DETAIL time spans to see interval level Service Class Period activity and performance. If DETAIL is selected, it should be selected for both files. If DETAIL is selected, replace the X-axis variable DATEHOUR with DATEHHMM in the Key Selection of all three SUMMARIZATION and DATA EXTRACT steps.
• You can increase or decrease the number of WLM_EC and WLM_ED file cycles to create charts that show more or fewer days.
• If you want to restrict the charts to show data from the day before exclusively, uncomment the SAS statement in the USER CODE task in both the WLM_EC and WLM_ED File Selection steps.
• You can use filter statements in the WLM_EC and WLM_ED File Selection steps to restrict data to particular time ranges (for example, HOUR GE 8 AND HOUR LE 17) or particular time zones (for example, ZONE EQ 1). If you do provide FILTER statements, they should be made in both the WLM_EC and WLM_ED File Selection steps.
• You can add filter statements in the WLM_EC and WLM_ED File Selection steps to select a particular SYSPLEX, CPCID, and/or WLMCLASS. If you do provide FILTER statements, they should be made in both the WLM_EC and WLM_ED File Selection steps.
• If your SYSPLEXES do not span CPCs, you can delete one of the first two data extract steps. If you want the CPC identified in each chart heading, delete the Service Class by SYSPLEX data extract.
• For the first data view, CPU and PI, the left Y-axis is scaled for five hours of CPU time. You can adjust this scale higher or lower to match the actual CPU usage of your Service Class Periods. You can also allow the axis to adjust dynamically for each chart by un-checking the FIXED button for the left Y-axis in the EDIT VIEW window.

You can use the extensive Chart View Edit capabilities to modify Y axis ranges to better visualize data ranges found in your environment, and to change chart visualization choices such as line thickness and color schemes.
