Recording Configuration Information
7
In the following sample IOCP configuration file, the UNIT value for FICON CUP definitions is 2032
for any FICON director regardless of vendor or platform. So all SilkWorm 3900, SilkWorm 12000, or
SilkWorm 24000 switches require UNIT=2032 for the CUP definition. All Domain IDs are specified in
hex values in the IOCP (and not in decimal values); the Domain IDs in the example are for
demonstration purposes only.
Sample RMF Configuration File for Mainframe
Resource management facility (RMF) is a performance management tool that measures selected areas
of system activity, including different views of the FICON channel. RMF presents data collected in the
form of System Management Facility (SMF) records. This data is essential for any kind of FICON
channel performance troubleshooting.
To obtain an RMF FICON director activity report, you must include the keyword “FCD” in the RMF
configuration file for the FICON director (this is generic for any FICON director). You must also define
the CUP port. In the sample below, the keyword is boldfaced.
