![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description a) Server Interval Section Number of Communication Sessions: The description of SM120NCS field says that it contains the number of communication sessions that exist at the end of the interval. The field for SM120NCS always shows a zero value. The documentation however is stating that the value reflecting the number of communication sessions should be stored in this field. Initially, the description was given to serve as a place holder for a future value: number of server's communication sessions. There is a disconnect between the design and the documentation. The documentation should not refer to this field as it was not intended to be implemented. . b) assembler macro needs to be changed to alter the contents of the SMF records.Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V5.0 for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The fields SM120NCS, SM120NLS, SM120NRS * * and SM120NHS are always zero in the * * SMF 120 subtype 3 Server interval * * record. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The fields SM120NCS, SM120NLS, SM120NRS and SM120NHS are documented to contain information about communication sessions but were not intended to contain any data.Problem conclusion Update bboos120.mac to indicate that the fields are reserved. APAR PQ88999 requires a change to documentation. The article titled "Subtype 3: Server interval record" has been updated so that the descriptions of the following fields read "Reserved": SM120NLS SM120NRS SM120NHS SM120NCS The change will appear in the next refresh of the InfoCenter.
