  3. Client Server Response

  4. Monitoring Facilities • Integrated with i5/OS • Performance data collection • Collection services • Performance monitoring • Interactive 5250 commands • WRKSYSSTS/WRKDSKSTS • iSeries Navigator (GUI) interface • Graphical monitors • "Drill-down" capability • Performance Management/400 (5722-PM1) • Shipped with i5/OS • Capacity utilization • Performance trend analysis • Graphs and reports generated by IBM "factory"

  5. System i Facilities Performance Tools/400 (5722-PT1) • Manages and analyzes performance data • Interactive commands • WRKSYSACT/DSPPFRDTA • Advisor • Analyzes performance data and displays data • Printed output • Reports/graphs • Performance Explorer (PEX) • Detailed performance information • Helps identify "hot spots" • PEX STATS • Application and IBM programs or modules • PEX PROFILE • High level language (HLL) programs • "Hotspots" based on source program statements • PEX TRACE • Programs • Licensed Internal Code (LIC) tasks • i5/OS jobs • Object reference information

  6. Work Management • Number of activity levels • Systemwide • Each pool • Check job state transitions • Memory pool allocation • Machine pool • User pools • Process priorities • High (=<20) • Low (=>50) • Expert cache • *CALC

  7. CPU Utilization by Priority

  8. Dynamic Priority Scheduling (1 of 2) • QDYNPTYSCD system value • 1=dynamic priority scheduling (default) • 0=fixed priority scheduling • Delay-cost algorithm • Waiting increases “cost” • “Costly” tasks have dispatch priority • Avoids CPU monopolization • Ensures CPU cycles for low priority tasks • Penalizes tasks with high CPU use • Uses priority groups • High priority (0) • Fixed priority (1-9 and 90-99) • Dynamic priority • Band I (10-16) • Band II (17-22) • Band III (23-35) • Band IV (36-46) • Band V (47-51) • Band VI (52-89)

  9. Dynamic Priority Scheduling (2 of 2)

  10. Key Capacity Indicators • Measured by Performance Monitor • CPU utilization • Usage by high priority processes/jobs/threads • Threshold dependent on n-way • 1-way ... 70% • 2-way ... 76% • 4-way ... 81% • 8-way ... 85% • 12-way ... 90% • Memory utilization • Machine pool approximately 5-10 per second • User pools • Impact of number of faults per second per active request • Disk utilization • Arm utilization threshold • Below 30-40% • Disk response time • Disk wait time • Space utilization • 85-90+% • I/O processor utilization • Below 50-60%

  21. Advisor Detailed conclusion: PFR2648 Cause . . . . . : The guideline was first exceeded in the interval ending 07/28/XX 13:03:24. The maximum utilization of 96% occurred in the interval ending 07/28/XX 13:08:18. The guideline was exceeded in 5 out of 10 intervals. Note: CPU utilization refers to the amount of the CPU used for jobs and system tasks with priorities less than or equal to 20. Recovery . . . : If response time is unacceptable or batch jobs no longer finish in an acceptable time, you may need to upgrade your CPU. You could also analyze your application design for efficiency. Detailed conclusion: Note that a high CPU utilization (above 70%) does not necessarily indicate a problem that needs immediate attention. If your performance goals (throughput and response time) are being met, then possibly all you need to do is analyze your growth plans to determine if a faster processor is needed in the future. The Capacity Planner can assist you with this planning. You can also use the historical data and graphics options in the Performance Tools to analyze the CPU utilization trend (CRTHSTDTA, DSPHSTGPH). Note: CPU utilization refers to the amount of the CPU used for jobs and system tasks with priorities less than or equal to 20. Technical description . . . . . . . . : If your average CPU time used in each transaction is small, then a high CPU utilization is less noticeable in your end response time. Based on your average CPU time of .12 seconds, you could expect good response time up to 65% CPU utilization. However, realize that even if you have a good average response time, the response time for longer running transactions may be unacceptable.
