Optimize Performance with Proper Configuration

Let CA PMO run for one hour. Then start up PMOMON and check various displays to see if CA PMO is configured for optimal performance.

Business Value:

Setting optimal parameters allows CA PMO to manage almost all the BLDL/FIND requests. This improves processing and significantly reduces its cost.

Additional Considerations:

Enter the D1 command to view the D1 display. Examine this display to see if the managed list is sorted more than six times per hour on average, or if the minimum sort interval is less than seven minutes. If either of these cases is true, CA PMO is resolving too few LNKLST library searches. To fix this, increase the size of the managed list by raising the value of the MLSIZE parameter.
Look at the D2 display and determine the percentage of CA PMO assisted LNKLST BLDL/FIND requests. Divide the number of CA PMO assisted LNKLST requests by the total number of LNKLST requests. This should be at least 90% (.9). Also look at the D5 display and divide the number of library directory searches that CA PMO resolved by the total number of library directory searches. Again, the result should be at least 90%. If either of these percentages is less than 90%, consider increasing the value of the MLSIZE parameter.
If CA PMO is automatically choosing what private libraries to manage, look at the D6 display. If the value of NUMADDED Exceeded is higher than 1%, raise the value for the NUMADDED parameter.
