- Description:
- Checks for VSAM RLS contention by looking at registered resources.
Check displays a contention table if detected.
- Reason for check:
- IBM® recommends monitoring
VSAM RLS contention.
- z/OS® releases the check
applies to:
- z/OS V1R8 and up.
- Type of check (local or remote):
- Local
- User override of IBM values:
- The following shows the default keywords for the check, which
you can override on either a POLICY statement in the HZSPRMxx parmlib
member or on a MODIFY command. This statement may be copied and modified
to override the check defaults:
UPDATE CHECK(IBMVSAMRLS,VSAMRLS_DIAG_CONTENTION)
SEVERITY(HI)
INTERVAL(00:05)
DATE('date_of_the_change')
PARMS('ROWS(20),FILTER(0)')
REASON('Your reason for making the update.')
- Debug support:
- No
- Verbose support:
- No
- Parameters accepted:
- Yes:
- PARM(ROWS)
Specify an integer, minimum 1, indicating the maximum number
of rows to be displayed in the contention table.
- PARM(FILTER)
- Specify an integer from 0 to 3600 to filter out rows in the contention
table with an elapsed time of 0-3600 seconds, leaving only the rows
which have a TIME value (in seconds) greater than or equal to the
FILTER value specified.
Note that the system looks at the ROWS
parameter before the FILTER parameter, so the FILTER value will only
be in effect on the number of rows specified in the ROWS parameter.
So, if there were 500 rows and the ROWS value is 200, it will show
at most 200 rows in the contention table.
A value of 0 disables
the filter, and a value of 1 filters out all rows with an elapsed
time of 0 seconds.
