Performance diagnosis information
The following report options are listed here for information. IBM® Service may request that you run one or more of these reports while assisting you with diagnosis. You do not need to collect this data unless it is requested by IBM Service.
- If you suspect that you are having throughput problems in a particular
address space, for example by looking at some other real-time performance
data, IBM Service may need to see a dump of one or
more address spaces. This is done using the following parameters:
JOBNAME=(<jobname list>) SDATA=(LSQA,PSA,SQA,SUM,SWA,TRT,WLM,CSA,RGN)
- If you suspect that the problem could be resulting from GRS latch
or ENQ contention, check the RMF™ Enqueue Activity Report and enter
the console command:
D GRS,CONTENTION
during a time period in which the performance problem is observed. SYS.BPX.A000.FSLIT.FILESYS.LSN represents HFS latches. Latch sets with a numeric suffix are file latches, specifically SYS.BPX.A000.FSLIT.FILESYS.LSN.01. If you detect file latch contention, the best way to determine the exact HFS file causing the problem is with an SVC dump, also collected during a time period in which contention occurred. You will need to dump one of the OMVS data spaces to get the file information.DUMP COMM=(description of problem) Reply to dump WTO, where serverproc is the name of your WebSphere Server address space(s) JOBNAME=(OMVS,Serverproc),DSPNAME=('OMVS'.SYSZBPX1,'OMVS'.SYSZBPX2), SDATA=(CSA,GRSQ,LPA,NUC,PSA,RGN,SQA,TRT,SUM)
- Sometimes USS errors can cause performance problems. The USS Ctrace (SYSOMVS) MIN tracing option always records OMVS errors. You can take an SVC dump of the OMVS address space (as described in the previous bullet) and the data spaces and format the SYSOMVS CTRACE. Use IPCS options 7.2.1, suboption D, component SYSOMVS and the TALLY option (default is FULL). Look for trace events of errors in the TALLY report.
