Tune CA PMO to Manage Libraries

If you are manually including libraries for management (that is, if you specified EXCLAUTO=* in your startup parameters), use this best practice to tune CA PMO.

Business Value:

Allowing CA PMO to automatically select libraries for management assures optimal performance. This private library selection by activity extends the performance gain to all busy libraries.

Additional Considerations:

• Check the D7 display to see if the percentage of I/O directory searches for candidates exceeds 10%.
• Also check this display to see if the percentage of I/O directory searches due to updates and concatenation problems where the member is not found exceeds 5%.
• If either of these problems exists, consider changing the EXCLAUTO=* parameter so that only certain libraries are excluded from management. Alternatively you can use the INCLAUTO parameter to allow CA PMO to automatically include busy libraries and volumes for management.
