PM80587: The xscmd command, -c showMapSizes, does not retrieve all addresses.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The xscmd -c showMapSizes retrieves all the JMX addresses for
  the configuration. In a large environment this causes the
  command to run slowly and might even lead to timeouts.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of the xscmd command, -c          *
  *                  showMapSizes, especially those with large   *
  *                  environments.                               *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When you run showMapsizes in a          *
  *                      topology with several maps defined,     *
  *                      the command can render slow             *
  *                      performance and time out.               *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The showMapSizes command makes remote calls for every map in
  an ObjectGrid and MapSet requested by the user. In an
  environment with several maps defined per ObjectGrid, some
  calls are redundant and slow the completion of the
  showMapSizes command.
  

Problem conclusion

• The number of remote calls was reduced and the performance of
  the xscmd command, showMapSizes, is improved.
