PQ92496: SMF 120.3 RECORD BYTES TRANSFERED FIELDS ARE TOO SMALL | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
![]() |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
APAR status Closed as fixed if next. Error description the SMF type 120 record, subtype 1 - Server interval record contain 6 fields for bytes transferred to and from the server: SM120BTS, -BFS, -BTL, -BFL, -BTR, and SM120BFR which are all long. We have evidence that more than 2 Gbytes of data can be transferred in a 2-minute interval which makes these fields wrap or produce negative numbers when viewed through the SMF summary browser/viewer. What follows is sample output. # Bytes transferred ToServer: 47070784; FromServer: -2130224078; LocalToServer: 0; LocalFromServer: 0; RemoteToServer: 47070784; RemoteFromServer: -2130224078;Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V5.0 for z/OS. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: WebSphere Application Server for z/OS * * SMF type 120 subtype 1 records (server * * interval) contains several counter * * fields such as SM120BTS which can wrap * * in a reasonably sized interval. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** For the counter fields which can reasonably wrap, new, larger, fields need to be defined in a new version of the SMF type 120 subtype 1 record such that the values cannot wrap in a reasonably sized interval.Problem conclusion Temporary fix Comments This APAR is being closed FIN with concurrence from the submitting customer. A solution to this problem will be delivered in a WebSphere Application Server for z/OS release within the next 18 months.
