CA Mainframe Application Tuner allows you to select how to display the information collected when a Natural program is monitored. You can view either the Natural executor programs (by which Natural supervises the execution of Natural 4GL routines), or the Natural routines themselves.

1. Analyze the data by using one of the analysis line commands (A, AL, AA, or AW).
2. Select one of the following two ways to locate the Natural statements:
   • From the Interactive Analysis menu, select Option 19.
   • From the Interactive Analysis menu, select Option 3 to display the CodeView panel. Issue the MODE 4GL primary command to display the activity that is associated with Natural routines.

   The Natural Programs panel displays:

   This panel displays the activity of Natural routines that were executing at the time that the monitor was run. These routines exist in ADABAS databases. The Language, Library, and Routine Name fields display, along with a description of the routine, if available. This information is important when multiple copies of a routine are maintained.

3. Type H or NH.
4. Press Enter.

   The 4GL Histogram panel shows the activity of each statement in the routine.

   The 4GL Histogram panel can also be displayed from the DelayView panel.

   The fields in the 4GL Histogram panel for Natural statements are now described.

   Library

   1-8 alphanumeric name of the Natural library from which routine was executed .

   This library resides in the Adabas database on the Natural System or User file.

   Routine

   Name of the 4GL routine, obtained from the 4GL language processor exit.

   Stmt

   Statement number of the currently executed statement of the 4GL routine. This statement is obtained from the 4GL language processor exit.

   Actv%

   Percentage of the monitored period that CA Mainframe Application Tuner detected a 4GL statement in control. The statement may or may not have been consuming CPU at the time.

   Visual

   Graphical representation of the Pct field.
