CHAPTER 11: Administration

Table 11-7. Status/Statistics (continued)

OptionDescription

System status is displayed as a set of statistics in a single report. The statistics reflect

system activities that have occurred since the last reporting interval. (If no reporting period is defined in the Command Facility Parameters Menu, statistics are reset every 60 minutes.)

The System Statistics report is made up of Channel Statistics (option 8 of the Status/Statistics menu), Switch Statistics (option 9 of the Status/Statistics menu), and a separate screen of information for each interconnect link, mux link, and X.21 link. The Channel Statistics screen and the Switch Statistics screen are shown and explained under options 8 and 9 below.
