MONITOR
The MONITOR (MON) service monitors address space activity to determine whether an address space is in a wait or a looping state.
The service provides the basis for a deadline management system by providing CPU time and EXCP counts for the life of a step. For a job whose characteristics are known, you can gauge the progress of a step at any point during its execution.
Syntax
The parameters are defined as follows:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
asi | address space instance; see Identifying-address-spaces for more information |
seconds | number of seconds that the address space is to be monitored; the default is 10 seconds, and the maximum is 1,200 seconds |
Example
To monitor address space XTSTQPAS for 10 seconds, type
MONITOR,XTSTQPAS
[1] [2] [3] [4]
