Tandem Capacity Model (TCM) Manual
Add Transaction
The Add Transaction option adds a new, user-defined transaction to the Performance model that,
typically, was not apportioned using a WA model. For example, if you have estimates of CPU and
disk demands for a new transaction for which no Measure data yet exists, you can use this option
to define the transaction.
After you select this option, a dialog requests the name of the transaction to add. It also asks for
the corresponding CPU and application disk seconds per transaction and whether the transaction
is audited or not. The disk seconds requested are application disk seconds and exclude seconds
attributed to TMF. If the transaction is audited, TCM assigns default values to the TMF disk read
and write seconds for the transactions. These values can be examined, modified, or both using
the Change Transaction option on the Update tab.
