Hi everybody,

in a customer shop we use IBM APA to trace some cpu-bound applications in
order to find out in which modules and statement applications use the most
of the cpu.

For a particular job APA shows a big "SYSTEM" cpu usage on IGZXLPKA module
as you can see in the following data.

Name      Description               Percent of CPU Time * 10.00%  .0.6%


*....1....2....3....4....5....6....7...
SYSTEM    System/OS Services       78.03

**************************************
    > IGZBXXMU  COBOL 2 Module     31.51 ****************

    > IGZ@BCD   COBOL 2 Module     12.76 ******

    > IGZXFPW   COBOL 2 Module     12.43 ******

    > FPVDFPCX  CSECT in IGZXLPKA   9.53 *****

    > IGZ@DSP   COBOL 2 Module      0.02

    > IGZXFCAL  COBOL 2 Module      0.02

    > IGZ@DCS2  COBOL 2 Module      0.01

    > IGZXFCA4  COBOL 2 Module      0.00

> MVS       MVS System              0.11

> SVC       SVC Routines            0.03

> DB2       DB2 Subsystem           0.00



DB2SQL    SQL Processing           12.13 ******

APPLCN    Application Code          9.70 *****

NOSYMB    No Module Name            0.11


In such a shop applications are Cobol (main V4 moving to V5) and this case
is a DB2 batch applications. There're different programs involved
dynamically called (to prevent questions, the whole shop is the same and
only this job shows this behaviour). There's a mix between V4 and V5 in the
call chain.

I was not able to find out lots of infos about the IGZXLPKA module but it's
manages dynamic call.

I've tried with a different programs-chain (written to test the call up to
5 level of nesting) but nothing similar happened.

Any hint ?

Thanks a lot in advance.
Massimo
