To list all alerts for dynamic address spaces, select option 4 on the Server Component Menu to display the following panel.
PMA 85-------- PMA SERVER - Option Setting ------------------------------- COMMAND ===> (If Dynamic Alert set to Yes, only non-alerted steps considered) Time Alert Generation : Y enter Y or N Max no. Alerts to be generated per entry : 3 enter no. from 1 to 10 Max Threshold Alert Generation : Y enter Y, C or N (If C conditional only generate Max Threshold alert if in measurement scope) Min Threshold Alert Generation : Y enter Y, A or N (If A all min values must be exceeded before a job is eligible for runaway) PXI Threshold Alert Generation : Y enter Y or N SMF Recording by Server : Y enter Y, S or N (If S recording to the KSDSJOB file is indirect, via a Spooling Interface) Cancel: CAN Save : END OR PF3
For each of the following options type Y (or special character as indicated) to enable or N to disable the feature:
Steps with scope are checked each monitor interval for conditions that meet the step alert criteria. If the criteria is met, a measurement is started for the step.
If the option is set to Y, the measurement duration will be calculated based on the average elapsed time of the step. If the option is set to D, the measurement duration default value will be used for all dynamic alerts.
Steps in scope that meet the step alert criteria at end of step are first made critical and, if the next run meets the alert criteria again, an alert is added for the step. If an open alert already exists or a Dynamic Alert was made during execution, the step will not be made critical and an alert will not be issued.
SMF Recording must also be enabled if this feature is to be used.
The Time Alert feature triggers measurements for STCs, jobs, and so on at preselected time/day combinations. Option 2 of the Server Component Menu is used to set Time Alerts.
The maximum number of measurements that can triggered by a Time Alert entry on each active server can be set between 1 and 10.
Start a measurement or add an alert when a step exceeds any maximum threshold relevant to the job.
If this option is set to C, only jobs that are eligible for runaway are checked.
Use the TA option of the Parameters Menu to set maximum thresholds.
Do not allow measurement or alert generation until at least one minimum threshold relevant to the job has been passed.
If this option is set to A, all minimum thresholds that are relevant to the job must be passed.
Use the TA option on the Parameters Menu to set minimum thresholds.
Trigger a measurement or add an alert if a step exceeds any PXI threshold value that is relevant to the job.
Use the TX option on the Parameters Menu to set Performance Index thresholds.
The server updates the job file information for all Performance Management Assistant-relevant steps. If this option is disabled, the End of Step Alert Generation is also disabled.
If this option is set to S, the updates are initially written to a temporary spool file and they are only transferred to the job file at the end of a user-specified spool interval. This method can be useful on very busy systems or when the number of servers that share the KSDS job file is high (approximately five or more).
