Converting Existing Applications or Enform Reports

to ZMS Style Record Formats

Measure User’s Guide—520560-003

E-2

Application Conversion Considerations

To obtain ZMS-style records from the callable interface, you must modify the procedure

calls to pass the templateversion parameter as described in the Measure

Reference Manual.

If the application is written in TAL or pTAL, you might have to convert constants and

variable fields used in calculations to FIXED types if the underlying record fields have

changed.

Field Reason for Removal

All max-qlen fields Max queue values were of questionable use in the

legacy interface and are removed in the ZMS style.

Measure architecture is moving to a model in which

counter records always exist, so such values would

represent a maximum since processor reload and could

never be reset.

entity.ctrl

entity.unit

These attributes of D-series I/O addressing have been

invalid on all G-series RVUs. You can list D-series data

in ZMS-style records, but D-series addressing attributes

are mapped to G-series addressing fields and must be

referred to by the G-series names.

CPU.mem-qtime This counter applies only to data prior to the G05.00

RVU. If analysis of this attribute is required, continue to

use the legacy-style interface.

CPU.processor-status This attribute is in all G-series RVUs but always reports

as 16 CPUs, so it provides little value.

CPU.send-busy-time This counter applies only to D-series data. If analysis of

this attribute is required, continue to use the legacy-style

interface.

CPU.starting-ucl-lock

CPU.ending-ucl-lock

CPU.starting-uds-lock

CPU.ending-uds-lock

CPU.starting-scl-lock

CPU.ending-scl-lock

CPU.starting-sds-lock

CPU.ending-sds-lock

PROCESS.lock-pages-qtime

PROCESS.ucl-lock-qtime

These legacy-style record counters were reserved but

never instrumented.

DISC.seeks

DISC.seek-busy-time

DISC.ablks-inuse-qtime

DISC.cblks-inuse-qtime

OPDISK.seeks

OPDISK.seek-busy-time

These counters have been obsolete since before D-

series RVUs.
