Status

This shows the status of the observation session:
  • Active means the session is currently taking place.
  • Cancel means the request was cancelled using the “CAN” line command.
  • Ended means the session has completed.
  • ErrMsg means the session was completed, but error messages are written during sampling. The sample file might be incomplete. Report S10 displays the error messages that are written during sampling.
  • Failed means the request failed to complete normally, and did not create a valid sample file.
  • REPEAT means that this is a repeating schedule request. The requests under this entry can be displayed by using the “+” line command to expand to the next level.
  • Sched means the session has been scheduled but measurement has not yet been started.
  • STEPS means that this is a multi-step request. The requests under this entry can be displayed by using the “+” line command to expand to the next level.
  • Stoppd means the request was stopped for some reason, usually a CPU Usage control issue, look at report S01 and check for the CPU Usage Status field. It will be present if the request was stopped due to CPU Usage controls. You can also use the “++” (or Enter key) line command directly on the request number field, and a reason will be shown in the detail window.
  • Tagged means that this measurement has been tagged (with the “T” line command) for use in variance reports or CICS® multiple address space reports.
  • Thresh means that this is a Threshold Monitor request. The request under this entry can be displayed by using the “+” line command to expand to the next level.
  • Trig means this request will be triggered when the corresponding scheduled request starts.
  • USS means that this is a USS environment measurement. A separate measurement file is created for each spawned address space. Enter the “+” line command to expand this item to see each completed measurement.
  • MultJb means that this is a multiple job request, created by entering a jobname with wildcards specified. The measurements under this entry can be displayed by using the “+” line command to expand to the next level.
  • IMS™ means that this is an IMS Multiple Address Space (MASS) request. Enter the “+” line command to expand this item to view the individual IMS MPP region observations.
Note: A plus sign (+) that appears after the status means that this request will repeat if the target job runs again. This happens when the “Times to repeat measurement” field is specified, and the specified number of times has not been reached, or the optional specified time interval has not expired. Once the job has been rerun, or the optional time interval passes, the plus sign will disappear.
