**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: RMF users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: RMF support for monitoring and * * reporting of 2 GB memory frames. * * * * Following RMF reports are extended: * * - Postprocessor Paging Activity report * * - Postprocessor Virtual Storage * * Activity report * * - Monitor III STORM report * * * * Following SMF records are changed: * * - SMF 70 to 79, RMF Product section. * * - SMF 71, Paging Data section. * * - SMF 78 subtype 2, Virtual Storage * * Private Area Data section. * * * * New overview conditions are added * * based on SMF record 71. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** This new function APAR provides RMF support for the gathering and reporting of performance measurements collected for usage of 2 GB memory frames. To expoit 2 GB memory frames, the Enhanced DAT Facility 2 (EDAT-2) must be available. +--------------------------------------------------------------+ >>> POSTPROCESSOR PAGING ACTIVITY REPORT <<< The Postprocessor Paging Activity report (PAGING) now shows values for fixed 2 GB frames and 2 GB memory objects of high virtual memory, as well as the size of the Large Frame Area for 2 GB memory objects. New fields in the Memory Objects and High Virtual Storage Frames section: LARGE FRAME AREA - 1 MB FRAMES Size of the 1 MB portion of the Large Frame Area. (This field replaces LFAREA SIZE in the section header.) LARGE FRAME AREA - 2 GB FRAMES Size of the 2 GB portion of the Large Frame Area. MEMORY OBJECTS - FIXED 2G Number of fixed memory objects that are allocated in the system and are backed in 2 GB frames. 2 GB FRAMES FIXED - TOTAL Total number of 2 GB frames that can be used by fixed 2 GB memory objects. This value is equal to the size of the 2 GB portion of the Large Frame Area in units of 2 GB. 2 GB FRAMES FIXED - AVAILABLE Number of 2 GB frames in the Large Frame Area that are not in-use. 2 GB FRAMES FIXED - IN-USE Number of 2 GB frames in the Large Frame Area that are in-use. Information about 2 GB frames and memory objects that are backed by 2 GB frames is only available if Enhanced DAT Facility 2 is installed. +--------------------------------------------------------------+ >>> POSTPROCESSOR VIRTUAL STORAGE ACTIVITY REPORT <<< The Postprocessor Virtual Storage Activity report (VSTOR) now shows usage values for fixed 2 GB frames and 2 GB memory objects of high virtual memory owned by the address space. New fields in the High Virtual Memory Usage section: MEMORY OBJECTS - FIXED 2 GB The MIN, MAX, and AVG values for the number of fixed memory objects that are backed in 2 GB frames, allocated with the indicated job. 2 GB FRAMES - FIXED The MIN, MAX, and AVG values for the number of 2 GB frames that are used by FIXED memory objects with the indicated job as the owner. Information about 2 GB frames and memory objects that are backed by 2 GB frames is only available if Enhanced DAT Facility 2 is installed. +--------------------------------------------------------------+ >>>>>> MONITOR III STORAGE MEMORY OBJECTS REPORT <<<<<< Changes to the Monitor III Storage Memory Objects (STORM) report: Related to System Summary: - The System Summary text line is removed and used as additional line for data output. - The 1MB MemObj column (Fixed, Shared, Common) was taken out. Fixed 1MB MemObj moved to the MemObj column. - Fixed 2GB was added to the MemObj column. The MemObj column now shows Fixed 1M, Fixed 2G, Shared, and Common. - New group 2GB Fixed was added with Total and %Used. Related to Address Space table: - Column Memory Objects 1 MB was taken out. - New column 2G-Fr Fixed was added. - Column 1MB Frames was renamed to 1M Frames. New and changed System Summary fields: MemObj Fixed 1M Average number of fixed memory objects that are allocated in the system and can be backed in 1 MB frames. Fixed 2G Average number of fixed memory objects that are allocated in the system and are backed in 2 GB frames. 2GB Fixed Total Total number of 2 GB frames that can be used by fixed memory objects. %Used Percentage of 2 GB frames that are used by fixed memory objects in the Large Frame Area. New Address Space related fields: 2G-Fr Fixed Average number of 2 GB frames in the Large Frame Area owned by this address space. +--------------------------------------------------------------+ >>>>>> SMF RECORD TYPES 70 TO 79 - RMF PRODUCT SECTION <<<<<< The SMF record level change number SMFxxSRL at offset 51 (x33) changes to 125 (x7D).
