Figure 15 (page 75) outlines the major steps involved in creating a WA model. This section
describes each of these steps.

Loading Performance Data Into TCM
TCM uses performance data samples and models as a basis for its capacity planning. Before you
can model systems with TCM, you must download sample performance data to your PC and load
the data into TCM.
Downloading Performance Data Samples
To create models using TCM, the sample performance data must be collected from the NonStop
host system using Measure and formatted by MeasTCM.
Once the sample performance data has been summarized by MeasTCM in a CSV file, you need
to download it from the host to the workstation and load it into TCM.
To download performance data samples to the PC, follow the download procedure you normally
use in Windows. All CSV files for the same application or set of applications should be kept in the
