Generating Statistics

Each processor in every node of a ServerNet cluster keeps a set of statistical counters

for each node in the cluster, including the local node. In addition, each processor keeps

a set of generic counters that are not associated with any particular node.

Each hour, SNETMON causes the statistical counters in each processor to be sent to

the service log ($ZLOG). SNETMON does this by sending a request to the MSGMON

process that resides in each processor. The MSGMON process sends the statistics

data to the service log in the form of an event: the ZSCL-EVT-STATISTICS: Node

Statistics (1200) event. This event provides a snapshot of message-system error

counters for the ServerNet Cluster subsystem.

The statistical counters are reset after the statistics data is recorded.

Using the TSM EMS Event Viewer Application, you can view Node Statistics events as

they are logged hourly. Or you can use the TSM Service Application to generate these

events at random for the server where you are logged on.

Use the following procedure to generate and view the statistics event for a node:

1. Right-click the local or remote node, and select Actions. The Actions dialog box

appears. Figure 5-17 shows the Actions dialog box.

2. From the Actions list, click Generate ServerNet Statistics.

Note. Statistics should be interpreted only by a service provider trained by HP.
