Resource Interval Report - IOP Utilizations

 

The IOP Utilizations section of the Resource Interval Report contains a combination of input/output processor (IOP) utilizations

These utilizations are:

Disk IOP utilizations

Gives input/output processor (IOP) utilization for direct access storage devices (DASDs). Consistent Disk IOP utilization at or above the threshold value affects system performance and causes longer response times and/or less throughput.

Multifunction IOP utilizations

Gives input/output processor (IOP) utilization for DASD, communication, and local workstation devices. Consistent utilization at or above the threshold value affects system performance and causes longer response times and/or less throughput.

Communications IOP utilizations

Gives communications input/output processor (IOP) utilization.

Local work station IOP utilizations

Gives input/output processor (IOP) utilization for local workstation devices.

 

Example

The total for the I/O processor utilization oftentimes does not match the sum of the three columns (IOP Processor Util Comm, IOP Processor Util LWSC, and IOP Processor Util DASD). This mismatch is caused by the utilization of other small components, such as system time.
