1 2* General This release notice summarizes the major points of information on COPE Version 5.4C. To print this file use the following command: /PRINT-FILE SYSFGM.COPE.054.E,CONTROL-CHARACTER=EBCDIC 4* The release level is that of September 2004. 3* 5* Changes in this revison (SOLIS revision status COPE V5.4C20) are marked by '5*' in the left-hand margin.
The WinZip files contain WORD-for-Windows files. Where each chapter is a seperate file named .DOC. With WORD the document may be printed as usual. 2* Currently there are no COPE V5.4C manuals available in English. The following additional documentation is also recommended: BS2000 Performance Handbook SM2 User Guide (for COSMOS as of OSD V2.0) COSMOS Descriptions 2 Technical information New and extended software functions are described in chapter 3. 2.
The "COPEV54" runtime procedure must then still be adapted to the respective user ID or BS2000 system. This applies to the IDs for COPE, MFHSROUT and the TOM.DOC text module. Further information is provided in Appendix 2 (page A2-1ff) of the COPE Benutzerhandbuch. 2.4 Product use COPE is a tool for performance prognosis.
2.5 Obsolete functions The following CPU types are no longer supported 7.521, 7.531, 7.536, 7.541, 7.551, 7.552, 7.561, 7.571 7.722, 7.730, 7.738, 7.740, 7.748, 7.750, 7.755, 7.760, 7.762 and C30-x. 2* 2.6 H121-x, 7.580-x1 Incompatibilities not applicable 2.7 2* 2.8 Restrictions The COSMOS evaluator can only process COSMOS measurement value files as of BS2000/OSD-BC V1.0 (COSMOS V11.
3. Software extensions The following extensions and enhancements are implemented over the previous version COPE 5.
2* 2* 2* 2* 2* 2* 2* 2* 2* 2* 4. 1* - Modeling with PAV (Parallel Access Volume) From COSMOS measurements PAV DEVICES are recognized and considered with the structure of model. The computation of the I/O waiting time is realized dependent on the number of existing alias DEVICES. In the model an even distribution of the accesses to the PAV DEVICES takes place. Thus the extent of utilization of individual volumes in the model can deviate from extent of utilization with the measurement.
