SMF CPU Time for APPC/MVS Transactions

The MICS Batch and Operations Analyzer creates APPC/MVS ASCH Transaction records from the SMF type 33 APPC/MVS TP Accounting record.

The following
MICS
file contains ASCH-scheduled transaction activity:
  • BATATP - APPC/MVS ASCH Transaction File
At the DETAIL time-span, BATATP file may contain several observations representing the resource utilization of one execution instance of an APPC/MVS transaction program (TP).
APPC/MVS TPs can be of two types, standard and multi-trans, with standard being the default:
'STP'
Standard schedule type, Standard user
'MTP'
Multi-trans schedule type, Standard user
'MSH'
Multi-trans schedule type, Multi-trans shell user
The BATATP file has no concept of interval recording for its file observations. Each observation represents the complete resource utilization of the APPC/MVS ASCH transaction for the duration of the TP execution.
In comparison to the APPC/MVS TP Activity (BAT_TP) file, the BATATP file provides a transaction oriented view of TP execution, while the BAT_TP provides an address space view.
The following CPU time data elements represent the CPU time used by APPC/MVS Transaction Programs (TPs):
ATPSRBTM - TP SRB CPU Time
ATPSRBTM contains the contents of SMF type 33 field SMF33SRB.
It is the CPU time that is spent executing system code called by APPC/MVS Transaction Programs (TPs).
ATPTCBTM - TP TCB CPU Time
ATPTCBTM contains the contents of SMF type 33 field SMF33SRB.
It contains the CPU time that is spent executing the application code in APPC/MVS Transaction Programs (TPs).
ATPCPUTM - TP TCB+SRB CPU Time
ATPCPUTM is the sum of ATPSRBTM and ATPTCBTM.
It contains the total TCB and SRB CPU time used by the APPC/MVS Transaction Programs (TPs).
