AutoStrobe monitoring message

If the measurement was initiated by the AutoStrobe monitoring function, a message appears on the top of the Measurement Session Data report indicating the reason AutoStrobe monitoring initiated the measurement. The reason can be for:

  • Batch applications: excessive elapsed time, excessive TCB time, or abnormal I/O activity.
  • CICS transactions: excessive CPU time, excessive response time, or excessive execution rates.

Refer to the Using-Strobe-to-measure-online-applications-and-batch-programs for more information about AutoStrobe monitoring and measurement candidate processing.

Job environment

The Job Environment section enables you to confirm that the Performance Profile represents the job and program you intended to measure. It provides additional information, such as system identification and model number of the CPU, which can help you diagnose errors.

PROGRAM MEASURED

The name of the program in which execution of the target program or subsystem was initiated.

JOB NAME

The name of the job under which the target program or subsystem was executed.

JOB NUMBER

The Job Entry Subsystem (JES) number of the target job.

ADDRESS SPACE ID

The system-assigned identifier of the address space in which the target program or subsystem executed.

STEP NAME

The name of the job step, or of the procedure step and job step, in which the program or subsystem was executed. For nested procedures, the procedure step name in the invoking procedure and the step name of the invoked procedure appear. For further information about specifying the job step, Refer to the Using-Strobe-to-measure-online-applications-and-batch-programs.

DATE OF SESSION

The calendar date on which Strobe began measurement. The format of the date depends on the date format specified by the Strobe system programmer in the Strobe parameter dataset.

TIME OF SESSION

The time of day at which Strobe began measurement. The format of the time depends on the time format specified by the Strobe system programmer in theStrobe parameter dataset.

CONDITION CODE/COMPLETION CODE

The condition code or the completion code. If the target program terminated normally while it was being measured, this field shows the condition code. If the target program terminated abnormally, this field shows the completion code. The field does not appear if the measurement completes before the target program completes.

SYSTEM

The version and release level of the operating system that executed the target program or subsystem. Sometimes, to understand all aspects of performance you need to know the specific operating system version and release level.

DFP (or) DFSMS

The version, release, and modification level of DFP (Data Facility Product) or DFSMS (Data Facility Storage Management Subsystem) under which the measurement was performed.

SUBSYSTEM

The name of the subsystem and the parameters chosen when Strobe uses one of its options to measure a subsystem. Subsystem-specific reports appear only if this field contains the subsystem information. If you measured a subsystem application, verify that Strobe collected the appropriate subsystem data.

CPU MODEL

The model number of the central processing unit (CPU) that executed the target program or subsystem. Sometimes, to understand certain aspects of performance you need to identify the manufacturer’s CPU timing information for the specific CPU identified in the measurement session.

SMF/SYSTEM ID (or) SYSTEM ID

The System Management Facility (SMF) ID and MVS system name on which the measurement session was performed. If you are not using Strobe in a multisystem environment, the label SYSTEM ID appears with the value of the four-character SMF ID.

COUPLING FACILITY NAMES

For systems connected to MVS coupling facilities, the coupling facility names that were in use system-wide during the measurement. This field records a maximum of 32 coupling facility names.

LPAR

For OS/390 systems running in LPAR mode, the name of the logical partition in which the target job executed.

64-BIT ARCHITECTURE ENABLED

    • The first number in the PTF level information indicates the highest PTF number for modules executed during the measurement session.
    • The second number indicates the highest PTF number for modules executed during reporting.
    • The third number indicates the PTF level that was supplied on your distribution media.

SAMPLE DATA SET

The name Strobe created and recorded internally for the sample dataset. If you renamed the sample dataset, the new name does not appear.

Measurement Parameters

This section identifies the parameters that Strobe applied to the request, specified by the user with an ADD, a CHANGE, or a SEND command, or on the appropriate Strobe/ISPF panel. Verify this section to ensure that Strobe applied the correct values to the measurement and attempted to collect the appropriate data. Some of these fields are optional—they appear only if you specify the associated operands on the appropriate Strobe/ISPF panel or on the ADD operation.

ESTIMATED SESSION TIME

The estimated duration of the measurement session, in minutes.

TARGET SAMPLE SIZE

The selected sample size. This value is the number of samples you requested Strobe to take during the estimated session time.

REQUEST NUMBER

The number that Strobe assigned to the measurement request. (A) indicates an active request, and (Q) indicates a queued request. An active request is a measurement request for a program that, at the time of the request, was currently executing. A queued request is a measurement request for a program that, at the time of the request, was not yet executing.

FINAL SESSION ACTION

The action that Strobe took when it reached the target sample size in its last measurement session. It gives the number of sample datasets created (blank if 1) followed by the final session action. The following session actions appear if you requested the measurement through Strobe/ISPF or specified the action through the Strobe command language:


    • QUIT (stop sampling and terminate the request)
    • STOP (stop sampling and suspend the request).

REQUESTED START DATE

For scheduled measurement requests, the date you specified for the measurement to be submitted. The format of the date depends on the date format specified by the Strobe systems programmer in the Strobe parameter dataset. This field appears only if you are using the AutoStrobe scheduling function.

REQUESTED START TIME

For scheduled measurement requests, the time you specified for the measurement request to be submitted. The format of the time depends on the time format specified by the Strobe systems programmer in the Strobe parameter dataset. This field appears only if you are using the AutoStrobe scheduling function.

RETRY TIME INTERVAL

For scheduled active requests, the number of minutes that you want Strobe to wait before trying to initiate the measurement session again if Strobe initially cannot find the target job. This field appears only if you are using the AutoStrobe scheduling function.

RETRY INTERVAL COUNT

For scheduled active requests, the number of times you want Strobe to attempt to initiate the measurement session if Strobe initially cannot find the target job. The number in this field is the number of times remaining from the number of measurement session initiation attempts that you requested. This field is not shown in Measurement Session Data Report and appears only if you are using the AutoStrobe scheduling function.

REQUEST GROUP

The name of the request group of which this measurement request is an element. A request group is a collection of measurement requests that have been saved together under one name with the AutoStrobe measurement request group function. This field appears only if you are using this AutoStrobe function.

CONCURRENT SET NAME

The name of the concurrent set to which this request group element belongs. A concurrent set consists of two types of request group elements: a trigger request and one or more related requests. The trigger request is denoted with (T). This field appears only if you are using the AutoStrobe measurement request group function.

CONCURRENT SET ELEMENTS

The job names of the request group elements that comprise the concurrent set. The trigger request, if present, is denoted with (T), which appears to the left of the trigger request jobname. Strobe lists a maximum of 20 request group elements in this field. If the concurrent set contains more than 20 request group elements, a plus sign (+) appears to the right of the last request group element. This field appears only if you are using the AutoStrobe measurement request group function.

SYS REQ

The system(s) on which you selected to run your measurement request when you operate Strobe in a multisystem environment. If you specified that this request can run on any system in the SYSPLEX, this field will contain ALL SYSTEMS. If you select a list of systems, the list will appear in this field. If you chose to submit the request on all systems in the SYSPLEX except specified systems, a list of the excluded systems will appear with the label ALL SYSTEMS EXCEPT.

MODULE MAPPING BASELINE

The value of the BASELINE operand that you specified on the Module Mapping panel. Strobe does not map load modules with a percentage of execution samples less than this value. This field appears only if specified. For more information on module mapping, refer to the Using-Strobe-to-measure-online-applications-and-batch-programs.

BASELINE OVERRIDE

The names of modules for which Strobe obtained control section mapping information regardless of the percentage of execution samples gathered. Strobe maps these modules even if their execution of samples is less than what you specified for the MODULE MAPPING BASELINE field. This field appears only if specified.

LIBRARY

The names of the libraries specified in which Strobe located module mapping data. This field appears only if specified.

MAPPED SVCS

The SVC numbers for which you requested detailed reporting. Execution and wait within the modules invoked by the SVCs appears in subsequent reports in the Performance Profile. This field appears only if specified.

OPTIONS

The attribution or data collector operands that you specified. Review these options to verify those that you specified in your measurement request. For more information on specifying data collector options, refer to the Using-Strobe-to-measure-online-applications-and-batch-programs.

Measurement statistics

The Measurement Statistics section provides the highest-level summary of the system resources used during the measurement session. Verify this section to determine if Strobe collected enough data for you to improve performance and to guide your further investigation.

EXEC TIME PERCENT

The percentage of time during which the central processing subsystem (comprising one or more CPUs) was in use by application tasks executing within the measured job step. Strobe computes the value as the ratio of samples in which it observed one or more sites of execution to the total number of samples taken. A high execution time percent alerts you to focus on these reports:


    • Program Section Usage Summary report
    • Program Usage by Procedure report
    • Attribution of CPU Execution Time reports
    • Most Intensively Executed Procedures report
    • Subsystem-specific reports that provide CPU consumption information.

WAIT TIME PERCENT

The percentage of time during which the central processing subsystem was available but was not in use by application tasks executing within the measured job step. The value is the ratio of wait samples to total samples. A high wait time percent alerts you to focus on these reports:


    • Time Distribution of Activity Level report
    • Resource Demand Distribution report
    • Data Set Characteristics report
    • Data Set Characteristics Supplement report
    • VSAM LSR Pool Statistics report
    • I/O Facility Utilization Summary report
    • DASD Usage by Cylinder report
    • Attribution of CPU Wait Time report
    • Subsystem-specific reports that provide CPU wait time information.

RUN MARGIN OF ERROR PCT

The margin of error at a confidence level of 0.95 for the percentages shown in the Performance Profile reports that detail run time. The reports in the Performance Profile that detail run time are reliable within a range of plus or minus the RUN MARGIN OF ERROR PCT reported. A RUN MARGIN OF ERROR PCT of less than 2% usually reflects a reliable measurement. Check that this value is 2% or less to verify that you have collected enough samples to have a valid measurement.

CPU MARGIN OF ERROR PCT

The margin of error at a confidence level of 0.95 for the percentages shown in the Performance Profile reports that detail CPU time. The CPU MARGIN OF ERROR PCT signifies that the reports that detail CPU time are reliable within a range of plus or minus the CPU MARGIN OF ERROR PCT reported. A high CPU margin of error does not mean that the Performance Profile is invalid. Rather, it indicates that you should focus your analysis on the reports that detail WAIT TIME.

WAIT MARGIN OF ERROR PCT

The margin of error at a confidence level of 0.95 for the percentages shown in the Performance Profile reports that detail WAIT time. The WAIT MARGIN OF ERROR PCT signifies that the reports that detail WAIT time are reliable within a range of plus or minus the WAIT MARGIN OF ERROR PCT reported. A high WAIT margin of error does not mean that the Performance Profile is invalid. Rather, it indicates that you should focus your analysis on the reports that detail CPU time.

TOTAL SAMPLES TAKEN

The total number of samples collected during the measurement session.

TOTAL SAMPLES PROCESSED

The total number of samples selected for processing. This number may be lower than the value in TOTAL SAMPLES TAKEN. If Strobe collects twice the number of samples specified in TARGET SAMPLE SIZE, Strobe halves its sampling rate. Because Strobe collected more samples while it was sampling at a faster rate, Strobe needs to discard some of the samples collected. Strobe discards enough samples so that the samples processed and the information in the Performance Profile reflect an even distribution of samples over time.

INITIAL SAMPLING RATE

The rate at which Strobe took samples at the beginning of the measurement session, expressed in samples per second to the nearest hundredth. Strobe calculates the initial sampling rate based on the expected session duration and the target sample size (rate=size/duration). Strobe does not allow the sampling rate to exceed 500 samples per second.

FINAL SAMPLING RATE

The rate at which Strobe took samples at the end of the measurement session, expressed in samples per second to the nearest hundredth. If this rate is lower than the initial sampling rate, Strobe has automatically reduced the sampling rate at least once after collecting more than twice the target number of samples. Strobe processes measurements according to the sampling rate in effect at the end of the session. To maintain this distribution, it discards the appropriate number of samples taken at higher sampling rates. These discards do not affect the validity of the measurement, but a final sampling rate lower than the initial sampling rate suggests that you should increase your estimate of the program’s run time for later measurement requests. Strobe does not allow the sampling rate to exceed 500 samples per second.

CPU TIME

The amount of CPU time consumed by tasks executing in the measured job step, exclusive of the measurement task itself, expressed in minutes and seconds to the nearest hundredth. Because you are usually billed for the CPU time used, it is considered the most important measure of system resource time.

AS ENCLAVE TIME

Address Space enclave time, representing CPU consumed in a given address space for an enclave that is not included in the CPU TIME field.

SRB TIME

The time, expressed in minutes and seconds to the nearest hundredth, during which the system was executing Service Request Blocks (SRBs). SRBs represent high-priority service routines. Strobe provides SRB time for your information and does not detail it in subsequent reports. Because Strobe measures while running in task mode, it cannot measure activity running under an SRB. CPU time, which is the aggregate task time for all Task Control Blocks (TCBs) in the address space, does not include SRB time. SRB time that is high relative to CPU time could indicate an unusual or atypical type of processing and may warrant further investigation with other tools.

IND ENCLV TM

The amount of CPU time observed in independent enclaves. An independent enclave represents a complete transaction. Its performance goal is assigned based on the service class to which it is classified when the enclave is created. Each independent enclave starts in period 1 of its service class and switched periods based on the service consumed by dispatchable units belonging to the enclave.

DEP ENCLV TM

The amount of CPU time observed in dependent enclaves. A dependent enclave represents the continuation of an existing address space transaction under a new set of dispatchable units. Its performance goal is inherited from the existing address space transaction based on the service class (or PGN) and period being used to manage the address at the instant that the dependent enclave is created. CPU service consumed by a dependent enclave is treated as if it were consumed by the address space transaction, and can cause the address space along with the dependent enclave to switch to later periods.

SERVICE UNITS

The amount of CPU execution time that Strobe observed during the measurement session, not including the measurement task itself. A service unit is a machine-independent unit of work consisting of a fixed number of instructions.

SESSION TIME

The actual duration of the measurement session, expressed in minutes and seconds to the nearest hundredth. If Strobe could not close the sample dataset properly (for example, because execution of the job in the address space was canceled), a warning message appears in place of this field and no values appear in the remaining fields.

Warning

Important

If you have suspended and subsequently restarted the measurement session, this field represents the elapsed time from the beginning of the measurement session. The time that the session was suspended is not factored out.

EXEC TIME

The amount of run time during the measurement session that one or more CPUs were executing tasks in the measured job step, exclusive of the measurement task itself, expressed in minutes and seconds to the nearest hundredth.

WAIT TIME

The estimated portion of run time during which no task within the measured address space was able to make use of the CPU time available to it, expressed in minutes and seconds to the nearest hundredth.

STRETCH TIME

The estimated amount of time that the CPU was unavailable to process programs executing in the measured address space because of demands made by higher-priority address spaces and by service request blocks (SRB) processing time for all address spaces. Stretch time may be high when multiple logical partitions (LPARs) are executing on the same complex of processors.

The value in the STRETCH TIME field reported on Measurement Session Data reports can vary widely, even when you run Strobe several times under what seem to be identical conditions. This discrepancy may result from a variation in system load.

MULTIPROCESSOR RATIO

The amount of CPU time consumed divided by the execution run time, expressed as a decimal number to the nearest hundredth.

ELIG JAVA EXECUTED ON zAAP

For Java programs, the percentage of Java eligible for processing on the zAAP processor that actually was executed on the zAAP processor.

EXCPS

The number of EXCP requests (direct invocations of execute channel programs, representing I/O) issued from the measured address space during the measurement session and the average rate at which they were issued. If a timing control table (TCT) was not in use during the measurement session, this value is zero.

A high EXCP rate correlated with high wait time alerts you to look for the causes of excessive I/O activity in the following reports:


    • Data Set Characteristics report
    • Data Set Characteristics Supplement report
    • VSAM LSR Pool Statistics report
    • I/O Facility Utilization Summary report
    • DASD Usage by Cylinder report.
