Online analysis
The DEDB is online to IMS when analysis occurs.
Read-with-integrity access (shared locks) is used. IMS services are used to read the DEDB.
Other applications can update the DEDB while analysis is in progress.
Fast Path Online Analyzer/EP locks each UOW briefly while it is read and analyzed. Another application momentarily cannot read that one UOW; however, other applications can access the remainder of the database during that time. A UOW that is being processed by an application is locked by the IMS system, preventing Fast Path Online Analyzer/EP from accessing the UOW until it is unlocked by the application.
Control region requirement (ACCES=UP)
When performing an online analysis, you must define the database to the IMS Control Region with ACCESS=UP.
Inputs and outputs
The following figure shows the inputs and outputs for the online analysis function:
Control statement sample
Analysis is limited only to the area that is specified with the IAREA keyword.
Example of JCL for an online analysis
//PFP EXEC PGM=DFSRRC00,REGION=0M, PARM=(IFP,<dbdname>,DBF#FPU0)
//STEPLIB DD DSN=BMC.PFP.LOAD,DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=IMS.RESLIB,DISP=SHR
//PFPSYSIN DD *
