Analyzing transactions if data is not available from a remote site
You can analyze MSC traffic even if the data from one or more of the participating remote IMS systems is not available.
If you are analyzing data from a single IMS that is in a MSC network, you see log records for the transactions from the local system:
- Log records show the messages or transactions being enqueued to the MSlink names.
- Log records show the replies or messages being taken off of the queue from the MSlink name origin as the transaction came back to the originating IMS system.
Log Analyzer creates logical units of work (LUOWs) to associate the available records, but the LUOWs cannot show records from a remote IMS system if the records are not available. Log Analyzer does not highlight the fact that records are missing and or try to explain why they are missing, but people who are familiar with the application can recognize points at which the transaction switched to the other system and returned.
The following figure shows a portion of the LUOW Detail report that was generated only for the local PR9F system; data from the remote PR9M system is not available. (You can compare this report to the report in Analyzing-the-resulting-comprehensive-data to see the differences when the remote data is available.) Comments that were added to explain the report (that were not part of the original report) are indicated as follows:
