Linkage Between Entities
•
One is obtained from several entities.
•
One is a derived artificial name tuple.
•
One is created for time management.
•
Twenty-six are performance aggregate entities, generated by SPAM.
Linkage Between Entities
Existence linkages are used to relate one entity to another by value. That is, related
entities contain the entityname-LINK field and value of a related entity. For example, an
occurrence of DISCOPEN contains the linkage field PROCESS-LINK with a value of
10. The PROCESS occurrence with an identification field (PROCESS-LINK) with a
value of 10 is the opener of this DISCOPEN. Varying degrees of linking exist between
entities. PROCESS is linked to ten entities.
File Name Spaces
To conserve space, all file names are projected out to three entities:
•
FLABNAME
•
LDEVNAME
•
TPDCNAME
The linkage to FLABNAME-LINK is the replacement. The FLABNAME entity is an
artificial construct, consisting of linkages:
•
Volume linkage LDEVNAME-LINK
•
Subvolume linkage TPDCNAME-LINK
•
Filename linkage TPDCNAME-LINK
This approach results in a space reduction of at least 65% to store the names.
Typically, the larger or longer the measurement, the greater the percentage of space
reduction.
