Interactive Analysis Option 4 - TimeView

TimeView displays program activity in time sequence. Each row of information on the TimeView panel represents a single sample taken during the monitored period. This format helps you determine a program’s execution path and looping logic. This format also gives a good indication of which code sections executed and when they executed during the monitored period.

The primary and line commands available for TimeView are described next.

ADDHelp

Invokes the content-sensitive Help application to update or create a help entry for the selected content.

D

Details - provides detail data for the sample.

Detail data is available if the Det column displays YES.

The data that displays on the TimeView panel is described next.

Profile

Name of the profile that you specified when you created the monitor definition.

Options

Type of analysis in effect: NORMAL, ALL, ACTIVE, or WAIT.

An asterisk (*) following the value indicates that tasks or transactions have been selected for analysis. Place the cursor on the Options field value and press Enter to display a pop-up panel listing the selected tasks/transactions.

Sequence Number

Sample sequence numbers, listed consecutively, from one to the number of samples that you requested.

Observation Number

Number of the observation.

There can be multiple occurrences of the same observation number in a multiple-TCB environment, such as CICS.

There also might be multiple samples taken, potentially one for each TCB seen during an observation.

Module

Name of the load module related to the collected sample.

CSECT

Name of the control section that was in control for the sample.

Offset

Offset where the interrupt occurred for the sample.

The offset begins from the start of the control section shown in the CSECT field. Offset displays in hexadecimal notation.

S(tatus)

Indicates the status, which can be either A (Active) or W (Wait).

Active indicates that the CSECT was executing on a CPU.

Wait indicates that the CSECT was not executing on a CPU.

Det

YES in the Det column indicates that additional information is available by using the Details line command to isolate the cause of delays.

Calling Module

Name of the module that issued a call for the module in control during the sample.

Calling CSECT

Name of the control section that called the routine that was in control during the sample.

You might need to scroll right to display the following fields:

Caller Offset

Offset from the start of the control section shown in the Calling CSECT field where the call to the current module was made.

Caller Offset displays in hexadecimal notation.

Task ID

Name of the program (including the TCB address) controlling the MVS task associated with this sample.

Transact Code

Transaction code from either an IMS/TM or a CICS environment.
