Server Summary (from $RECEIVE File) (SERVICE)
Server Summary (from $RECEIVE File) (SERVICE)
This 132-column report summarizes server process information, including the average
time that requests for service spent waiting in process message input queues and the
estimated service times and utilization levels of server processes. The report includes:
•
The NonStop Kernel process name of the server process
•
The process identification
•
The execution priority of the process
•
The server program object file name
•
The times at which measurement of the process began and ended
•
The number of transactions per second handled by the process
•
The average time that requests for service waited in the process message queue
•
The estimated average service time of the process; the difference between the
time the process began working on a new transaction and the time it completed
work on that transaction
•
The estimated utilization of the process
•
The total number of logical file opens matched to the process
•
Logical I/O requests to measured files (by Measure)
•
Time spent actively using the CPU, waiting to use the CPU, and waiting for
Memory Manager service
•
Time spent waiting for completion of logical I/O requests to measured files
This report uses the CPUX, SERVER, and FILE entities.
