-----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Phil Smith III Sent: Friday, May 22, 2009 12:36 PM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: TCB time question
The following is typical output found in the SYSMSG produced by a batch job on our z/OS 1.9 system: -STEPNAME PROCSTEP RC EXCP CONN TCB SRB CLOCK SERV -NNN1SW 00 2326 1195 200.44 .00 .9 3094K -NNN1HW 00 2316 1069 .64 .00 .0 9753 The following are the step termination message produced for those steps: /START 2009139.1224 /STOP 2009139.1225 CPU 0MIN 46.98SEC SRB 0MIN 00.03SEC /START 2009139.1225 /STOP 2009139.1225 CPU 0MIN 00.15SEC SRB 0MIN 00.01SEC We are not able to reconcile the step TCB time, particularly in the first step, with the actual run/clock time of that step. In fact, the TCB time attributed to the first step is considerably greater than the job's entire wall-clock run time. <SNIP> The Friday Dumb Question: Since I don't know your environment, and since other questions have been asked here at work which ignored the obvious (everyone wants the weekend to get started...), here is the dumb question: How many CPUs available and how many TCBs in the address space? If the number of CPUs is greater than 1...
