This is an area where the RMF data is there, but understanding how to report on it is not easy. This is more like art than science, trying to isolate a system problem.
Unless you have additional products like RMF Magic, EASYSMF, TIVOLI (not sure which one), SAS and MXG, SAS and MICS, and a few others, this is not going to be fast. The RMF Post Report Processor will give you reports but you have to understand the data to make any determinations. The JCL you have only extracts the raw SMF Type 79 records. It does not produce any reports. And RMF covers more than Type 79 records. Unless you are sure this is what you need, I would extract 70:79 records. These are all of the RMF records produced. If you have access to the RMF Monitor (ISPF Application), then you can see if the date is still in the VSAM Datasets for RMF and use the panels to get an easier look. Otherwise, you will need to look at this manual: http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/zos/v1r13/index.jsp Look for the following titles: z/OS RMF Performance Management Guide z/OS RMF User's Guide z/OS RMF Report Analysis Or depending on what is causing your delays, this Presentation may be helpful http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/ieduasst/stgv1r0/topic/com.ibm.iea. zos/zos/1.13/Simplification/zOS_V1R13_RMF_GRS_Supervisor_Delay_Monitoring_En hancements.pdf or Tinyurl: http://tinyurl.com/p8y6t6h Review this IBM utility RMF Spread Sheet Reporter http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/features/rmf/tools/rmftools.html It is a PC/JAVA based application where you can download your RMF data to your PC and run reports there Here is another link many RMF documents http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/features/rmf/presentations/rmfpres.ht ml This may work for the REDBOOKS, for RMF details http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks.nsf/searchsite?SearchView&query=rmf What I might do is setup a process when you have 100% utilization with the following MVS Commands: D ASM D GRS,C D A,L Look at the time of the impact for any repetitive abends in SYSLOG Look at the time of the impact for any repetitive error messages (VTAM, IMS, DB2, CICS, depends on what your workload mix is) Look for any IRA messages (may or may not be there) Print LOGREC for the time of the impact and see what was going on. Maybe Software records, may help. Review WLM if you are using it, and see how the policies are setup. Are there any SVC Dumps during this time? And probably a few other things that might be specific to your shop.
