BYPASSREC


Use the BYPASSREC command to ignore specified record types or subtypes on a particular system.

Syntax

BYPASSREC <RECORD_LIST or KEYWORD> SID=<SID_LIST>

Syntax explanations

  • SID_LIST is a comma separated list of system IDs.
  • RECORD_LIST is a comma separated list of record types or subtypes, which UIE should ignore. Record types are specified as TYPE/SUB_TYPE, that is,115 or 115/1. If only RECORD_TYPE is specified, then all subtypes for that record type are ignored.
  • The following KEYWORDS can be specified for this command:
    • ALL indicates that all records should be ignored.
    • DCDS indicates that you want to disable DCOLLECT Data Set (D) and VSAM (A) record processing.
    • RMF indicates that all RMF records (types 70 - 79) should be ignored.
    • CMF indicates that all BMC AMI Ops Monitor for CMF records should be ignored.

      Important

      If you collect both BMC AMI Ops Monitor for CMF and RMF data on some systems and input both of these data sources to UIE, this might cause double counting of some system data. To avoid this situation, include a BYPASSREC command and specify the keyword CMF or RMF to indicate which data source should be bypassed.

Rules

  • The RECORD_LIST value is required.
  • If ALL is specified for RECORD_LIST, then SID_LIST is required.

Examples

  • BYPASSREC ALL SID=SYSA,SYSB

    In this example, you do not want to process any data from systems SYSA and SYSB that are in your combined SMF/RMF file.

  • BYPASSREC 74/5,99/6 SID=SYSA,SYSB

    In this example, record types 74/5 and 99/6 on systems SYSA and SYSB will be ignored.

  • BYPASSREC 74

    In this example, all subtypes of record 74 will be ignored on all systems.

    Warning

    Remember that all activity of the specified systems will be ignored. In particular, if these systems share DASD with the systems you are interested in, DASD utilization of shared devices in the baseline will be underestimated and 'What if...?' results in BMC Performance Predictor for Mainframes might be incorrect.

  • BYPASSREC 100,101 SID=TEST

    In this example, you do not want to process type 100 and 101 (Db2) records for system TEST.
