Using the IWMRCOLL Service

The IWMRCOLL service allows a performance monitor to obtain a variety of performance data from a single system. Although IWMRCOLL provides information about a single system, the performance monitor can combine the information to provide a sysplex view.

Table 19 shows how you can use the workload reporting services together with IWMRCOLL to get workload activity information on a single system. The following section explains how to use the information returned by IWMRCOLL.

ActionReason
Issue REQSRMST SYSEVENTTo get information about the service definition and policy
Issue IWMPQRY macroTo obtain current active policy length
Issue GETMAINTo obtain storage needed to hold the active service policy information
Issue IWMPQRYTo obtain active service policy information
Set up a reporting interval.To prepare for subsequent IWMRCOLL requests
Issue IWMRCOLL specifying MINLEN, MAXLEN, and QUERYLENTo obtain length of storage needed. IWMRCOLL returns ANSTOKN required for subsequent calls to IWMRCOLL
Issue GETMAINTo get storage needed to hold information returned by IWMRCOLL
Issue IWMRCOLL ANSTOKN=tokenTo get workload activity information mapped by IWMWRCAA
Set up a reporting intervalSample workload activity information by issuing IWMRCOLL at your determined interval
Calculate differences in dataTo determine the delta of data returned for the interval in each successive IWMWRCAA
