Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM Z Decision Support 1.9.0    *
  *                 and IBM Z Performance and Capacity Analytics *
  *                 3.1.0 who collect SMF type 71 records.       *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 1. The column description for           *
  *                      CSTOR_TOTAL_AVG is misleading.          *
  *                      2. There are no metrics for the total   *
  *                      frame count in central storage and for  *
  *                      large frames that can be used by        *
  *                      fixed pages.                            *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF(s).                   *
  ****************************************************************
  1. The description for column CSTOR_TOTAL_AVG states it is the
  total frame count instead of the average frame count used.
  2. The total frame count in central storage and metrics for
  large frames that can be used by fixed pages, are not currently
  collected.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1. Update column description for CSTOR_TOTAL_AVG.
  2. Three new columns are added to MVSPM_PAGING_H to collect data
  for the total frame count in central storage and large frames
  that can be used by fixed pages.
