Measure Reference Manual

Fields are listed alphabetically.
INPUT-BYTES-F
(G-series, Legacy Style only) Same as INPUT-BYTES but accommodates larger values (64 bits rather
than 32 bits).
Counter type: Accumulating.
OUTPUT-BYTES-F
(G-series, Legacy Style only) Same as OUTPUT-BYTES but accommodates larger values (64 bits
rather than 32 bits).
Counter type: Accumulating.
Usage Notes for All TERMINAL Entities
When you use the TERMINAL entity to measure subdevices on an X25AM communications line,
the subdevices can also be measured as FILE entities.
Usage Notes for H-Series and J-Series TERMINAL Entities
In H-series and J-series RVUs, all byte-count fields accommodate 64 bits. Field names ending in -F
are no longer used in ZMS style records but remain available to applications that request data in
legacy style.
Usage Notes for G-Series TERMINAL Entities
• SUBSYSTEM-VERSION for ZMSTERM records is provided by the specific product subsystem
of the line represented by each ZMSLINE record; for example, SNAX/XF, X25AM, or AM3270.
• The 64-bit byte-count fields (fields ending in -F) collect the same data as older 32-bit byte-count
fields. For example, the 64-bit field INPUT-BYTES-F collects the same data as the 32-bit field
INPUT-BYTES. The 64-bit fields are less subject to overflow caused by high levels of I/O activity.
The 32-bit fields are currently active and continue to return values. If no field overflow exists,
the 32-bit fields and the 64-bit fields return the same value. If a 32-bit field overflows, the
corresponding 64-bit field returns the correct value, and the 32-bit field returns a value of -1.
The ERROR field for the measured entity also returns -1 to indicate an overflow condition.
Convert your applications to use the 64-bit fields; 32-bit fields might be deactivated in a future
RVU.
In MEASCOM commands and in command (OBEY) files, use the names of the 32-bit fields.
For example, issue the command LIST TERMINAL BY INPUT-BYTES, not LIST TERMINAL BY
INPUT-BYTES-F. MEASCOM uses the names of the 32-bit fields in output displays such as
reports and plots.
Measure G09 and later PVUs support up to six CLIPs in a SWAN concentrator.
TMF
The TMF entity provides information about TMF transactions.
