CA MICS Accounting and Chargeback Option

Product changes: ACT7281, ACT7285, ACT7290

To continue to deliver problem free operation of CA MICS Accounting and Chargeback Option, some corrections have been made to prevent the problems from occurring in accounting jobs:

• When SAS 9.3 TS1M2 has been installed, the INVOICED and INVOICEL jobs no longer fail with a U0998 ABEND accompanied by a MICSLOG messages ACT01022E that indicate an allocation failure with error code 410.
• The MONTH199 step of the monthly update job (MONTHLY) does not fail because the ACTAUDN1 file has insufficient space. Also, If a Special Accounting Calendar is being used, the MONTHACT job does not fail on insufficient space for the data set in DDNAME ACTAUDN1.
• When working with the VCA DAA Resource Journal (ACTJDA) or the VCA VSAM (ICF) Resource Journal (ACTJVS) files, the following Computation Codes display the correct Comp Code Descriptions on the Algorithm Specification panel:

  1801 - NON-VSAM 3330 DASD SPACE

  1802 - NON-VSAM 3350 DASD SPACE

  1803 - NON-VSAM 3380 DASD SPACE

  1804 - NON-VSAM 3390 DASD SPACE

  1811 - VSAM 3330 DASD SPACE

  1812 - VSAM 3350 DASD SPACE

  1813 - VSAM 3380 DASD SPACE

  1814 - VSAM 3390 DASD SPACE

• The CA MICS Analyzer Option for IMS has added data element DL/I, Buffer, Open/Close CPU Time (ISUDBOTM) that contain the sum of:

  ISUTMCBF - Control Region Buffer Handler Time

  ISUTMCDL - Control Region DL/I Time

  ISUTMDBF - Dependent Region Buffer Handler Time

  ISUTMDDL - Dependent Region DL/I Time

  ISUTMDOC - Database Open and Close Time

These data elements contain IMS Control Region and Dependent Region processing CPU times which are attributable to the application being executed.

A new Computation Code is introduced to support charging for this new data element:

Note: If you are already charging for ISUTMCDL (1006) or ISUTMDDL (1007), do not select ISUDBOTM (1010) because these elements are included in ISUDBOTM. Also, if you are already charging for ISUCPUTM (1004) do not charge for ISUDBOTM since this new measurement is the subset of ISUCPUTM.
