DEVICE report

This report contains data on the I/O operations performed with peripheral devices during one monitoring cycle.

It counts the number of EXCP calls per second (see glossary, page 448).

The user can specify up to eight devices in the DEVICE statement for which the data is to be output separately. If more than 8 devices were active in the monitoring cycle, the mnemonic device names of other devices are displayed in the ACTIVE line. The number of further devices depends on the length of the mnemonic names of the devices which have been output.

Report output

The REPORT DEVICE statement is used to request the output of the DEVICE report. The devices defined using the DEVICE statement are output first, followed by all other devices. These are sorted in accordance with their load.

The activities of the communication controllers (CTCCs, TRANSDATA 960s, 8170 controllers, LAN adapters, HNCs) and of GS are not monitored.

Notes

Following successful reconfiguration in the multiprocessor systems, all I/O counts for the last monitoring cycle are represented by ***** as they may be incorrect.

SM2 is not notified of device management commands (see the “Commands” manual [15]). In the monitoring cycle in which such commands are entered, incorrect data may be produced for the affected devices.
