I just discovered that in R.9 there is a nice new field in the 74-2 (XCF) record - R744MJOB. This is the job name for an XCF member.
Traditionally the member name is often something useless (to me) like M101 and the group name is equally tough: IXCLOnnn. For XES Lock Structure contention resolution the traffic goes through this group. But you can see working out that traffic and its performance is impossible. Likewise for IRLM (the next layer out in lock resolution) the group is a (not brilliant) DXRnnnnn. For eg GRS the R744MJOB nails this as any group with a R744MJOB of "GRS" must be GRS Star, I have data to demonstrate this. What I don't have is a R.9 system with DB2 data sharing. Does anyone have this combination? If so would they mind sending me a smattering of 70-1, 74-2 and 74-4 for at least one member? If you want more on my take on what's new in the 74-2 and 74-4 in RMF R.9 take a look at http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/blogs/page/MartinPacker?entry=z_os_r_9_rmf Thanks, Martin Martin Packer Performance Consultant IBM United Kingdom Ltd +44-20-8832-5167 +44-7802-245-584 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
