z/OS Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF) Performance Workload
The z/OS Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF) Performance Workload
consists of a series of Test Case driver programs, written in S/390
Assembler Language. These driver programs are combined in various ways
to create the desired workload for a specific measurement.
ICSF Workload Scenarios:
- PCAX Sweep:
this sweep includes:
- Test cases which must use the PCICA card
on the z990.
- XCDB Sweep:
this sweep includes:
- Test cases which must use the PCIXCC card
on the z990,
have only DES keys, and are measured by byte rate.
- XCDC Sweep:
this sweep includes:
- Test cases which must use the PCIXCC card
on the z990,
have only DES keys, and are measured by call rate.
- XCPB Sweep:
this sweep includes:
- Test cases which must use the PCIXCC card
on the z990,
have PKA keys, and are measured by byte rate.
- XCPC Sweep:
this sweep includes:
- Test cases which must use the PCIXCC card
on the z990,
have PKA keys, and are measured by call rate.
- Multiple Job Sweep:
multiple copies of each test case are executed concurrently,
and the test cases are run serially.
- Single Job Sweep:
a single copy of each test case is executed,
and the test cases are run serially.
- Single Test Case:
one or more copies of a test case are executed
while measurement data is collected.
