CICSplex LSR Pool Status attribute group

The CICSplex LSR Pool Status attribute group provides information about the Local Shared Resource (LSR) pools that have been built in CICS for VSAM files.

Note:
The attributes within the CICSplex LSR Pool Status group are stored for historical retrieval within the Tivoli Data Warehouse. Selected attributes within this group are candidates for the TDW's summarization and pruning features.

CICS Region Name Indicates the job name or modify ID of the CICS region being monitored. Each CICS region in a z/OS image has a unique name. This name is an alphanumeric string, with a maximum of 8 characters, and case-sensitive. CICS region names are always in uppercase characters.

Lookaside Ratio Indicates the percentage of VSAM read requests that were satisfied without initiating I/O because the Control Interval (CI) was already resident in the buffer pool. The value format is a percentage in the range of 0-100.

Origin Node The combination of z/OS System ID (SMFID) and CICS region name. The value format is an alphanumeric string, maximum 32 bytes, and case-sensitive.

When a situation is true, the system compares the origin node name in the attribute to the names of managed systems assigned to the item. If the origin node name matches the name of a managed system, the status of the item changes accordingly. If the names of the origin node and the managed systems do not match, the status of the item remains unchanged.

Percent of Active Strings Indicates the percentage of strings that are currently active. The value format is a percentage in the range of 0-100.

This value is computed by dividing the number of active strings by the total number of strings.

Pool ID Identifies the LSR pool. The value format is an integer of maximum two bytes.

Pool Status Indicates the status of the LSR pool. Values are: Created
Deleted
Not built

Pool Type Indicates the type of subsystem using the LSR pool. Value isCICS.

System ID Indicates the 4-character name that uniquely identifies an active z/OS operating system within a given CICSplex. The value format is an alphanumeric string, maximum 4 characters, and case-sensitive. z/OS System IDs are always in uppercase characters.

Tasks Waiting Indicates the number of current string waits. The value format is an integer of maximum 4 bytes.

Total String Waits Indicates the total number of string waits. The value format is an integer of maximum 4 bytes.
