The following table describes the fields of the snapshot utilities summary portion of the Snapshot data sets panel.

Summary statistics for data sets processed by snapshot utilities

Field

Description

A (Active)

Whether the data set is active (being managed by XBM)

The following statuses can be displayed:

  • An asterisk (*) indicates that the data set is active.
  • A plus sign (+) indicates that the Snapshot Copy has been restarted for this data set after a failure in utility processing.
  • A minus sign (-) indicates that the Snapshot Copy is restartable and was active for this data set, but a utility failure is causing the Snapshot Copy to wait to be restarted.
  • An exclamation point (!) indicates that the Snapshot Copy was restartable for this data set, but an unrecoverable error now prohibits a restart; this data set will remain in this status until you issue the TERM command or attempt a restart. (An attempted restart clears the job.)

G (Global)

Whether the data set is enabled for snapshot processing in a sysplex environment

If the data set is enabled, an asterisk appears in this column.

Data set name

The fully qualified name of the data set

RRate

The read access rate (measured in blocks per second) of the snapshot-enabled utility for this data set

CBlocks

The number of blocks currently in the extended buffer for this data set

Cmpl %

The percentage of the managed object for which the snapshot-enabled utility has completed snapshot processing

XBM calculates this value by using RBA values to determine how much of the object has been processed
