| Mike,
|
| (jt:  You might want to read this, too.)
|
| I really like the format you are using with the various time buckets.
| After
| running down several dead-end paths,  the only performance file (QAPM*) I
| see
| that has this kind of information is QAPMRESP which is for twinax attached
| workstations only.  The Performance Tools Manual shows a report
| for Locally
| Attached Workstations as well as one for Remote Workstations.  I am not
| finding
| this type of info for LAN attached Client Access type workstations.
|
| Is your report showing the Client Access workstations or just the twinax
| type?
|
| If I understand correctly, Performance Tools presents reports and screens
| based
| on the data that is collected by the QPFRMON job that starts when
| you run a
| STRPFRMON command.  (I am not sure if/how this is related to the CRTPFRDTA
| job
| that is always running in QSYSWRK.)  We don't have Performance Tools, but
| before
| I spend money, I would like to have some assurance PT can actually provide
| the
| info I need.

|    Enough of my stories.  My thought is that you use another metric for
|    response time.  This assumes you can get someone to buy into the idea
| that
|    sometimes response time is an application problem or design issue.  I
| think
|    this is real critical.   What we measure is the 'distribution curve of
|    response times'.  Everyone is going to be slightly different
| but what we
|    measure is the standard 4 buckets: 0-1 second, 1-2, seconds, 2-4
| seconds,
|    4+ seconds.  95% of our transactions fall within sub-second, 98% within
| 2
|    seconds, and so on.   Right now I forget how we track that but I am
| pretty
|    sure it is a component of performance tools.
