By default, Performance Agent stores process data in the history file summarized by workload families. To save modeling data in the history file, click the model data (unlimited) button. When model data is enabled, no workload families can be selected.
If you choose Classify by Families without specifying the workload families, process data are summarized into four records representing interactive, batch, network, and detached processing. All other process data are lost such as process data based on image name, account name, etc.
The Workload Families Excluded list box contains a list of workload families. To add a workload family to a history file definition, click a workload family name and click the transfer button.
To add multiple workload families, click all their names contained in the Excluded list box. Then click the transfer button.
The Workload Families Included list box contains a list of workload family names. These names specify the workload families that define the new history descriptor. To remove an entry from the Included list box, click the name and click the transfer button.
The Clear button removes all entries and cancels the definitions.
The Create button adds the family definitions to the defined list and clears the entries.
To delete a history file descriptor

Performance Agent removes the descriptor name from the history file descriptor list and clears the definition fields. If you do not delete the history file descriptor, a message box displays explaining why your request was not executed. A failure occurs when history files are created from this definition. A list of these history file names displays.
