Note: The End to End Response Time collector, supplied with IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON XE products, must be started for this workspace to display data.
The User Response Time workspace provides an overview of the activities of system users logged in through VTAM using SNA, arranged according to user ID. The User Activity Overview table view identifies, for each user ID, the number of transactions a given user has executed and the total response time for the transactions. The total response time is broken down into the average response time attributable to traffic on the network and average response time for host processing.
Use this workspace to identify bottlenecks in your system that may be due to processor or network problems or due to poorly designed transactions. For example, if a user is running a low number of transactions but is experiencing very high host or total response time, it would be advisable to examine the transactions to understand the reasons for the bottleneck.
Two bar charts, User Response Times and Transaction Counts, illustrate the contents of the table view's columns.
This workspace can record history.
