dataset, the actual average value was 120 microseconds.
MXG Variable CRYCTE is the calculated average value,
0.000120 seconds, which is 120 microseconds. When printed
with TIMW13.3 format, only three decimals were displayed
(0:00:00.000), so crypto duration variables are now

====== Changes thru 35.151 are in this MXG 35.06 dated Jun 30, 2017=====
Change 35.151 BMC CMF TYPE74 subtype 8 records requires BMC PTF BQM1335
TYPE74 after IBM SuperPav support is installed, even if you are
Jun 28, 2017 NOT using SuperPAVs. After IBMSuperPAV PTFs, the ESS Rank
data are incorrect. No code was changed in MXG.
Thanks to Jerry Ellis, Liberty Mutual, USA.
Change 35.150 Option %LET CECONLY=YES; creates PDB.ASUMCEC keeping only
VMXG70PR the 68 CEC-Level variables, dropping 2794 LPAR-specific
Jun 28, 2017 variables (generally useless, with unique variable names
for 60 LPARs) and creates PDB.ASUMCELP (no changes, but
with one observation per LPAR, it is THE dataset to use
to report LPAR data, with ONE set of variable names.)
NOTE: ALL LPARS in the CEC are summed into ASUMCEC.
Only the first 60 have sets of kept unique names.
The ASUM70PR/ASUM70LP and ASUM70GC/ASUM70GL datasets are
not created when %LET CECONLY=YES; is placed in your
//SYSIN prior to the INCLUDE of ASUM70PR.
Change 35.149 New BUILDJCL=YES option creates JCL for two step job with
UTILBLDP PGM=IFASMFDP control statements to select ONLY the SMF
Jun 30, 2017 records needed for your UTILBLDP selections.
Sep 30, 2017 On Sep 30, UTILBLDX from this change became UTILBLDP as
had been planned in the original text of this change,
and UTILBLDX was removed from MXG 35.09.
-comparison of CPU savings:
Using IFASMFDP to select SMF records can save CPU time,
especially for Ad Hoc jobs that select a relatively small
number of SMF records. Tests with a 15 GigaByte SMF file
with 25 million records was used, but only 1.4 Million of
those records (1 GB) were actually decoded and output.
But they had to be read and that costs CPU time:
MM:SS
READ ALL RECORDS 14:56
USE MXG MACFILE EXIT TO SKIP UNWANTED 12:43
IFASMFDP READ ALL SELECT/WANTED 0:10
READ SELECTED/WANTED 2:25
-Using MACFILE, _SMF decodes the full header and then
deletes unwanted. Decoding DATETIME variables is the
most expensive INFORMAT so I inserted an exit to skip
the unwanted immediately after the ID was input and
prior to any DATETIME field, but the savings were much
less than hoped for and much less than using IFASMFDP.
MM:SS
READ ALL with _SMF THEN DELETE UNWANTED 6:29
READ ALL, DELETE AFTER ID READ 4:45
-BUILDJCL for extreme cases provides extreme results:
Selecting 194 SMF 115 records in a file of 300 million
records (1 MB from 137 GB) dropped the CPU time from
25 min to only 46 seconds, elapsed from 28 to 13 min.
Change 35.148 RMF III CPUTM in datasets ZRBRCDS and ZRBRCDR is wrong if
ASMRMFV ASMRMFV selected RCD records but didn't select SVP table.
ADOCRMFV Creation of CPUTCBTM/CPUSRBTM from Service Units requires
VMACRMFV the SVPCPU and SVPSRB coefficients. ASMRMFV now selects
Jun 27, 2017 SVP records when RCD is selected. Additionally, variable
CPUTM is set missing if there are no SVP data.
SO YOU MUST HAVE BOTH RCD AND SVP TABLES IN ASMRMFV.
-However, if the SVP table is selected, then the RCD table
is NOT forced. The SVP table is now also moved to the
BASIC option table selection group from the MOST option
table selection group because the RCD was always part of
the BASIC option table group.
-Minor performance improvement to UWD table processing
logic.
-Several documentation Sections are updated to support the
above changes:
Section 0 "Contents"
Section 4 "RMF III Table Selection Parameters"
Section 13 "Filtered Records"
Section 26 "ASMRMFV and MXG PDB Data

VMAC74 multiplied by 256; the two input variables had already
Jun 23, 2017 been converted to bytes.
-TYPE749 variables decoded from SMF74DO offset were wrong;

Change 35.145 Some zVM VXSYTPRP new SMT variables were incorrectly
FORMATS tested for error conditions with GT 8000000Nx values
VMACVMXA that no longer existed after their INPUT, causing large
Jun 25, 2017 values in occasional observations. They are now INPUT
with IB4 or IB4.3 INFORMATS so the first-bit-value causes
a negative value, and the error tests are now LT 0 to
detect and delete them. The MGVXAER format was revised
decode the negative values to print the error messages on
the SAS log (for the first 3 of each error type).
-Some INTERVAL variables were incorrectly deaccumulated
that also caused occasional large values.
Thanks to Giuseppe Giacomodonato, EPVTECH, ITALY.
Change 35.144 These error messages, introduced in Change 35.050:
ASUM70PR MXGERROR:DATASETS ASUMCEC ASUMCELP ARE NOT VALID. YOU ARE
VMXG70PR MXGERROR:MISSING TYPE 70 RECORDS FOR ONE OR MORE SYSTEMS.
Jun 23, 2017 MXGERROR:SMF70LAC VALUES FOR THOSE SYSTEMS/CECS ARE INVALID
MXGERROR:SEE CHANGE 35.144 TO CORRECT.
impact the important ASUMCEC and ASUMCELP CEC-level data.
Datasets ASUM70PR and ASUM70LP are impacted, but they
are SYSTEM-Level and are NOT recommended for analysis.
The messages will result if you did NOT process type 70
records from ALL OF YOUR z/OS SYSTEMS in the CEC; for
that case, you need to read all 70 SMF records.
They can also result if your z/OS configuration uses z/OS
SYSTEM names that are set in your SYS1.PARMLIB's IEASYSxx
and are NOT the same as the SMF SYSTEM ID: for example,
if you set SYSTEM names in IEASYSxx to the LPARNAME.
-This change creates a new INCODE70 argument that can be
set externally by macro variable &INCODE70FORPR, so you
can change those SYSTEM name to LPARNAME. Note, this is
only done internally in ASUM70PR code; there is no SYSTEM
variable in ASUMCEC/ASUMCELP. To use INCODE70FORPR, you
first need run this program and look at the output of
PROC FREQ DATA=PDB.TYPE70PR;
TABLES LPARNAME*SMF70STN/NOROW NOCOL NOCUM NOPERCENT;
to verify that LPARNAME equals SMF70STN for ALL systems.
IF THAT IS TRUE, then you need to use either INCODE70= in
your tailored ASUM70PR member (in your USERID.SOURCLIB),
or set the value prior to your ASUM70PR include, using:
%LET INCODE70FOR70PR=%QUOTE(
IF SYSTEM NE LPARNAME THEN SYSTEM=LPARNAME;
);
-Newly added, once you have verified the preceding is TRUE
you can let MXG do the heavy lifting and specify:
%LET INCODE70FOR70PR=ENABLEAUTO;
and MXG will generate the needed code to correct.
Don't hesitate to contact support@mxg.com for help.
See Change 36.027 for an example when LPARNAME is not
equal to SMF70STN.
Change 35.143 -The UTIILBLDP option SUPPRESS is enhanced to recognize
UTILBLDP CICS to be the same as 110.
Jun 21, 2017 -If you specified SORTOUT=NEVER (not really recommended,
intended only for internal testing) it didn't work right:
only the datasets where sort IS required were NOT sorted,
(i.e. DIF() required for deaccumulate members) and all
other datasets WERE sorted. Now, NEVER sorts NOTHING,
and SORTOUT=NO option now sorts ONLY those members that
must be sorted for DIF().

Jun 21, 2017 -Variable BETALEXT has length $16 in VMACBETA subtypes
Jun 26, 2017 21 and 25, but the first INPUT for subtype 0 and other
earlier subtype are length $12, so the kept length was
only 12. Now, LENGTH BETALEXT $16 is set so the kept
variable length is the maximum 16 bytes.

Change 35.135 -Enhancements for 4 numeric data filters for RMF Monitor
ADOCRMFV III ASI (Address Space Information) table.
ASMRMFV -A pair of data filters are added to filter ASI entries
VMACRMFV based on the ASICPUTA (Total TCB+SRB time) field for each
Jun 6, 2017 MINTIME interval. These filters are effective only if
the ASI table is selected.
New Parameter Alias(es)
------------- ------------------------------------------
ZEROCPU ZCPU Default
NOZEROCPU NOZCPU, NZCPU
-ZEROCPU is the default and results in all ASI entries
being output to the RMFBSAM file and thus all becoming
observations in the MXG PDB data set ZRBASI (depending
on other ASI filters that may be in use).
The default provides a compatible behavior with prior
ASMRMFV versions.
-NOZEROCPU results in all ASI entries with ASICPUTA=0
being filtered (depending on other ASI filters that may
be in use) and thus these do NOT become observations in
the MXG PDB data set ZRBASI. The data volume to generate
the PDB can be significantly reduced.
In a test group of 21 RMF Monitor III VSAM data sets
78.3% of all ASI entries had ASICPUTA=0. Actual results
may vary.
-While the NOZEROCPU setting might seem to be ALWAYS
desirable there are other considerations:
1) Filtering zero CPU time ASI entries will result in
time series gaps for some Address Spaces in some MINTIME
intervals in charts, plots, or reports.
If such gaps are not acceptable, use the default ZEROCPU
parameter instead. However, there will be a higher
number of PDB ZRBASI data set observations as in prior
ASMRMFV versions.
2) Zero CPU time conditions are NOT always due to pure
idleness for an Address Space.
RMF Monitor III detected delays such as Processor,
Enqueue, Operator Reply, and Operator Mount separately or
in combination can prevent accumulation of any CPU time
for an Address Space in a single MINTIME interval.
The NOZEROCPU parameter used alone with the NOKEEPDELAYS
default will filter out these entries so that further
investigation of a zero CPU time Address Space in a
MINTIME interval based on delays is impossible.
-With the above use of NOZEROCPU in mind an additional
pair of data filters are added to further filter ASI
entries based on the ASISWAIN (Number of Single State
Samples Delayed by ANY Resource) field for each MINTIME
interval.
This filter pair is effective only if the NOZEROCPU
parameter is in effect.
New Parameter Alias(es)
------------- ------------------------------------------
KEEPDELAYS KDELAYS, KDLYS, KEEPD
NOKEEPDELAYS NOKDELAYS, NOKDLYS, NOKEEPD Default
-With NOZEROCPU and NOKEEPDELAYS in effect all ASI entries
with ASICPUTA=0 are filtered regardless if any delays
occurred or not during a MINTIME interval (if not already
filtered by other ASI filters).
-With NOZEROCPU and KEEPDELAYS in effect only ASI entries
with both ASICPUTA=0 AND ASISWAIN=0 (zero delays) in a
MINTIME interval are filtered (if not already filtered
by other ASI filters).
In a test group of 21 RMF Monitor III VSAM data sets with
NOZEROCPU and KEEPDELAYS 75.8% of all ASI entries had
ASICPUTA=0 and ASISWAIN=0 and so were filtered.
This was only 2.5% less data filtered than with NOZEROCPU
used alone. Once again actual results may vary.
-NOZEROCPU and KEEPDELAYS are likely the best compromise
settings between ASI data reduction and retention of
delay information. Neither are defaults.
However, for maximum data reduction use NOZEROCPU alone
if subsequent delay analysis is not required.
-If ZEROCPU/NOZEROCPU is specified multiple times the last
occurrence takes effect.
-If KEEPDELAYS/NOKEEPDELAYS is specified multiple times
the last occurrence takes effect, but both are ignored
if ZEROCPU is in effect.
-The following chart shows ASI entries output to the
RMFBSAM file and thus also to the subsequent observations
in MXG PDB ZRBASI data set based on the settings of
ZEROCPU/NOZEROCPU, KEEPDELAYS/NOKEEPDELAYS:
---------------------------------------------------------
| NOKEEPDELAYS | KEEPDELAYS
| (Default) |
---------------------------------------------------------
ZEROCPU |All ASI entries output |All ASI entries output
(Default)| |
---------------------------------------------------------
NOZEROCPU|Only ASI entries output|Only ASI entries output
|with ASICPUTA NE 0 |with ASICPUTA NE 0
| |OR ASISWAIN NE 0
---------------------------------------------------------
-ASIAND/ASIOR does NOT apply to ZEROCPU/NOZEROCPU and
KEEPDELAYS/NOKEEPDELAYS filters. These are evaluated
independently of other ASI filters.
-The order of ASI filter application is:
1) ASISUBSYS= <----
2) ASIWORKLOAD= |
3) ASIRESGROUP= |
4) ASISRVCLASS= |--< ASIAND/ASIOR applies only
5) ASIRPTCLASS= | to these filters 1) to 8)
6) ASIJOBCLASS= |
7) ASIJOBNAME= |
8) ASIJESID= <----
9) ZEROCPU/NOZEROCPU
10) KEEPDELAYS/NOKEEPDELAYS
-The MXG00 record version is raised to x'09' from x'08'.
New fields added to the MXG00 record include:
ZEROCPU/NOZEROCPU and KEEPDELAYS/NOKEEPDELAYS settings
-Update message RMFV006I to show new output filters
ZEROCPU/NOZEROCPU/KEEPDELAYS/NOKEEPDELAYS.
-Several documentation Sections are updated to support
the above changes:
Section 0 "Contents"
Section 2 "Terminology"

Section 5 "Input Data Selection Parameters"
Section 6 "Report Control Parameters"

Change 35.128 Documentation Note. ZFS and ODS users may need to change
IMACINIT the MXG default CAPSOUT option to NOCAPSOUT since those
May 26, 2017 system need to support both cases. I don't think it is
safe for me to change the option as it could impact the
existing users on z/OS where it was originally needed.
But you can add OPTIONS NOCAPSOUT: in the IMACINIT
member of your tailoring library if you determine it can
be changed with no impact.
Change 35.127 Dataset TYPE30_6 could have negative values for Early
VMAC30 Address Spaces (ASIDs that start prior to JES init that

Thanks to Hai Huynh, Freddie Mac, USA.
Change 35.120 WPS only, MXG 35.04, Change 35.085. A variable with no
VMXGPRNT label generated unintended text with multiple quotes
May 16, 2017 Varname1='Label*(varname)''(next vrname)'
which is valid text for a SAS label, defined as the text
after an equal sign up to the text before the next token
that is followed by an equal sign, but this syntax was
was not accepted by WPS as a label, causing an ERROR.
The circumvention is to create a LABEL='NOLABEL' for
variables that do not have a label.
-VMXGPRNT is used in ANAL113, ANAL116, VMXGFIND, VMXGPRAL
VMXGPRA1, VMXGPRNT, VMXGSRCH, and JCLPDB members.
Change 35.119 READDB2 had a hard coded limit of 450 for IFCID, and 499
READDB2 had been added in TYPE102s. Now limit is 999.

Thanks to Lynn Hong, UCLA, USA.
Change 35.118 Notes on the use of VIEWs in DATA steps that create more
Document than one DATASET.
May 11, 2017 -Only one DATASET can be a view in a DATA step (and the
BUILDPDB program already has one).
-Any of the datasets can be the view, but that view MUST
be the first dataset referenced (read/sorted), or none
of the other datasets will exist.
-Views can dramatically reduce elapsed and CPU times and
I/O counts and durations, for instance for a DATA step
followed by a SORT, where the VIEW eliminates the write
and read of the dataset that is created without a VIEW.
The VIEW doesn't have any impact on the resources used
by the SORT.
-This example started as TYPE120 with the lower case
lines added. WORK needs to be cleared in case there was
a dataset of the same name, whether it was a view or a
dataset. The /view=typ1209r enables the view and names
the one dataset, and the _st1209r "data set sort macro"
is invoked first, and then made blank so the _S120
"product sort macro" can sort the other datasets:
proc datasets ddname=work mt=all kill;
%INCLUDE SOURCLIB(VMACSMF,VMAC120,IMACKEEP);
