Capturing a RMF workload activity report

Using the Workload Activity Reports, you can observe the measurements in the service and reporting classes.

Before you begin

For more information on RMF workload activity reports and the RMF Monitor III refer to the article RMF Workload Activity reports and RMF Monitor III.

About this task

The following RMF1 job reads the data from RMF data buffers.

1. Run the RMF Monitor 1 post processor as a batch job which can read the RMF data buffers from memory and produce a report.

   The sample job that follows will run the RMF Monitor 1 post processor (You will need to change the time and date parameters.)

   //RMF1JOB  JOB 1,CLASS=A 
   //RMFPP    EXEC PGM=ERBRMFPP,REGION=0M 
   //MFPINPUT   DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SYS1MANE
   //MFPMSGDS DD   SYSOUT=* 
   //SYSIN    DD   *  
    SYSOUT(O)  
    NOSUMMARY  
    SYSRPTS(WLMGL(SCPER(WSHIGH,WSMED,WSLOW,SYSSTC,OPS_DEF)))
    DATE(04172003,04172003)        /* <== SET TO MEAS. DATE  MMDDYYYY  */
    RTOD(1430,1500)                /* <== SET TO MEAS. TIME OF DAY HHMM*/
    DINTV(0002) 
   /* 
   //

   This will take the raw SMF data, in this case the MANE data, and produce the workload activity report as an H output class in SDSF.

2. Using the Workload Activity Reports, observe the measurements in the service and reporting classes. After your measurement run is over, you should reset the SMF parameters to their standard settings with the SET SMF=xx command.
