Performance Considerations

CA MIM provides resource serialization services among multiple systems running z/OS or z/VM. CA MIA lets sites share tape devices. CA MIC allows console data (messages and commands) to be routed across systems. A number of factors, both internal and external to the CA MIM address space, can cause CA MIM to provide less than optimal global service times.

External factors, like dispatching priority have a direct impact on the performance of the CA MIM address space. These factors can degrade CA MIM ENQ service times.

The following CA MIM internal parameters can also affect performance:

This section examines the internal and external factors that can affect CA MIM performance in your environment.
