DSECT NAME - SYTXSG FUNCTION - Map a Monitor record. LOCATED BY - Through the Monitor Control Area REFERENCED CONTROL BLOCKS - MRRECHDR Monitor Record Header NAME - MRSYTXSG DESCRIPTIVE NAME - Monitor Sample Record Domain 0 - System Domain Record 14 - Expanded Storage Data (Global) DESCRIPTION - Assess use and benefits derived from expanded storage. This information should be used with record MRSYTXSP (Domain 0, Record 5) for a complete picture of expanded storage use.

In time-of-day (TOD) clock format. See IBM System 370 XA Principle of Operation for explanation of format. 16 10 Character 4 * 20 14 Character 0 MRHDR_END End of header 20 14 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_XSTXBGET Number of expanded storage (XSTORE) allocations. NOTE: see record MRSTOXSU (Domain 3, Record 10) to locate the current user of XSTORE. If no MRSTOXSU is written, no user is currently attaching XSTORE. 24 18 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_XSTXBREL Number of expanded storage de-allocations 28 1C Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_XSTUSRSH Number of times a Shared System (NSS/DCSS) was visited by migration. (Because of multiple visits to the same shared system, this number can be greater than the actual number of shares systems) 32 20 Bitstring 8 SYTXSG_XSTCTXAV Number of expanded storage blocks that are available, but not in use, by CP at this time 40 28 Bitstring 8 SYTXSG_XSTCPPAR Number of XSTORE blocks in CP partition. Updated only when XSTORE is attached or detached from user 48 30 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCPY Cumulative number of times the data buffer was page aligned for minidisk cache usage. Value is sum of TCMPIN4K + TCMPOU4K 52 34 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCPN Cumulative number of times the data buffer was not page aligned. Value is from field TCMPINVA. Note: when added with SYTXSG_HCPMDCPY, the result is the total number of data buffers moved to and from XSTORE. 56 38 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCPR Cumulative number of pageins (from XSTORE to main storage). Value is sum of TCMPIN4K + TCMPINVA. 60 3C Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCPW Cumulative number of pageouts (from main storage to XSTORE) Value is from field TCMPOU4K. 64 40 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCAC Maximum number of pages the cache can be authorized to have in expanded storage. Value is from TCMXSMAX. 68 44 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCNE Cardinal count of expanded storage pages in the minidisk cache. Values is from field TCMXSTOR. 72 48 Unsigned 4 * Reserved for IBM use. Previous field is no longer meaningful. (SYTXSG_HCPMDCPH) 76 4C Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCEX Cumulative number of times a data buffer was not put in the cache because the fair share limit was exceeded. Value is from TCMFSLEX. 80 50 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCLI Number of data buffers the user can insert per fair share interval. Value is from field TCMFSLIM. 84 54 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_CALMDCAU Number of users that did at least one insert into the cache since the last fair share interval. Value is from sum of TCMFSHVM+TCMNFSVM 88 58 Unsigned 4 * Reserved for IBM use. Previous field is no longer meaningful. (SYTXSG_HCPMDCHT) 92 5C Unsigned 4 * Reserved for IBM use. Previous field is no longer meaningful. (SYTXSG_HCPMDCMS) 96 60 Unsigned 4 * Reserved for IBM use. Previous field is no longer meaningful. (SYTXSG_HCPMDCEM) 100 64 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCIS Cumulative number of inserts into the hash table. Value is from field TCMINSCT. 104 68 Unsigned 4 * Reserved for IBM use. Previous field is no longer meaningful. (SYTXSG_HCPMDCSP) 108 6C Unsigned 4 * Reserved for IBM use. Previous field is no longer meaningful. (SYTXSG_HCPMDCSU) 112 70 Unsigned 4 * Reserved for IBM use. Previous field is no longer meaningful. (SYTXSG_HCPMDCFP) 116 74 Unsigned 4 * Reserved for IBM use. Previous field is no longer meaningful. (SYTXSG_HCPMDCFA) 120 78 Unsigned 4 * Reserved for IBM use. Previous field is no longer meaningful. (SYTXSG_HCPMDCLP) 124 7C Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCQC Cumulative number of insertions into the waiting queue. The waiting queue keeps track of users that are trying to request data that is already on its way to the cache. Value is sum of fields TCMSTKRD, TCMSTKEX, and TCMSTKPF. 128 80 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCXG Cumulative count of XSTORE blocks that Minidisk Cache gets from CP expanded storage. Value is sum of fields TCMXSTOR + TCMXSTDL 132 84 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCXR Cumulative count of XSTORE blocks that Minidisk Cache steals from expanded storage. Value is from field TCMXSTDL 136 88 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCTR Total eligible minidisk cache read requests: Cumulative number of requests to read one or more blocks of data from cache. Value is from TCMIA + TCMINOTA. 140 8C Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCIA I/Os avoided: Cumulative number of requests to read data from cache where all requested blocks were found in cache, thereby avoiding an I/O operation. Value is from field TCMIA. 144 90 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCIB Invalidated blocks: Cumulative number of cache blocks invalidated (discarded from cache) due to I/O issued at the virtual device level via a non-cachable I/O interface. Value is from field TCMDELCT. 148 94 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_HCPMDCIT Invalidation total requests: Cumulative number of requests to invalidate cache due to I/O issued to a virtual device via a non-cachable I/O interface. This includes requests where there were no blocks in cache for that virtual device, and therefore no blocks invalidated. One request may result in zero to several blocks being discarded from the cache. Value is sum of fields TCMDCCT+TCMUDFST+TCMUDMLT 152 98 Unsigned 4 * Reserved for IBM use. Previous field is no longer meaningful. (SYTXSG_HCPMDCIH) 156 9C Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_TCMXIDSZ Maximum allowable number of XSTORE blocks in track cache (based on avg age of XSTORE block). AKA "ideal xstore cache size", set by arbiter logic in HCPSTP. 160 A0 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_TCMXSMIN Minimum number of XSTORE blocks used by cache as set by user command 164 A4 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_TCMSTLXS Number of times the steal function was invoked to steal XSTORE blocks from the track cache. 168 A8 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_XSTAVGAG Average age of paging XSTORE blocks. 172 AC Unsigned 2 SYTXSG_HCPSTPXB Bias for minidisk cache use of expanded storage. A decimal point is assumed to the left of the low order 2 digits. For example, a value of decimal 95 in this field would be a bias setting of .95 . 174 AE Character 2 * Reserved and available for IBM use. 176 B0 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_TCMFSHVM Number of fair share cache inserters during this fair share interval. 180 B4 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_TCMRDCT Count of successful read access to MDC records. 184 B8 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_TCMPIN4K Cumulative number of 4K aligned pageins (from XSTORE to main storage). 188 BC Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_TCMPINVA Count of page faults resolved with PGIN to validate page for standard track (no-4K case) 192 C0 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_TCMSTKEX Count of times a CPEBK was deferred on a track (writes) 196 C4 Unsigned 4 SYTXSG_TCMSTKPF Count of times a CPEBK was deferred on a track (page fault priority) 200 C8 Character 0 SYTXSG_END
