Analyze and detect space thresholds


The following example of JCL requests to analyze and detect space thresholds.


01 //PFP EXEC PGM=PFPMAIN,REGION=0M
02 //STEPLIB   DD DISP=SHR,DSN=BMC.PFP.LOAD
03 //          DD DISP=SHR,DSN=IMSVS.RESLIB
04 //          DD DISP=SHR,DSN=IMSVS.DFSMDA
05 //IMSACB    DD DISP=SHR,DSN=IMSVS.ACBLIB   ---> IMSACB DD is not required in a managed ACB environment instead the active directory is used to refer the control blocks.
06 //PFPSAMP1  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=BMCPFP.PFPSAMP.PFPSAMP1
07 //PFPSAMP2  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=BMCPFP.PFPSAMP.PFPSAMP2
08 //PFPSAMP3  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=BMCPFP.PFPSAMP.PFPSAMP3
09 //PFPSYSIN  DD *

EXEC and STEPLIB DD statements for Fast Path/EP offline execution.

05

IMSACB DD statement used for database processing.

06-08

Area data set names.

09

PFPSYSIN DD for Fast Path/EP control statements.

10

Analysis is performed for all areas (IAREA=ALL is default). Full (cross-reference) pointer validation is performed on all areas in the DEDB.

11

The THRESHOLD subcommand and the keywords that follow it help to determine whether there are any potential problems due to free space limitations.

12

If the analysis process detects less than 10% of free space available in DOVF in the area, a warning message is issued.

13

If the analysis process detects less than 15% of free space available in IOVF in the area, a warning message is issued.

14

If the analysis process detects less than 20% of free space available in RAA in the area, a warning message is issued.

15

If the analysis process detects that the percentage of RAP blocks that overflow into DOVF/IOVF exceeds 15%, a warning message is issued.
