Workload Servers Attributes
Use these attributes to view all servers that make up the defined workloads in both active and standby sites.
Abnormal Terminations The rate of abnormal transaction completions per 1000 transactions for this server application. This value is optionally supplied by server applications to the Workload Manager, which uses it to adjust the reported WLM weight. The abnormal terminations rate is applicable only for z/OS workload servers. Otherwise this value is set to 0.
Agent Guest Name The name of the Linux on z Systems guest where the Lifeline Management Agent that is monitoring the server resides. The agent guest name is applicable only for Linux on z Systems workload servers. Otherwise this value is set to N/A.
Application Name The name of the SNA application. The application name is applicable only for SNA workload servers. Otherwise this value is set to N/A.
Cluster Name The name of the WebSphere MQ cluster name for the workload. The cluster name is applicable only for MQ workload clusters.
Collection Time The date and time of the data sampling. By default, this value is displayed as MM/DD/YY hh:mm:ss, where MM is the month, DD is the day, YY is the year, hh is the hour, mm is the minute, and ss is the second.
Communications Server Health The health of the server application as determined by TCP/IP. The value is calculated based on how well the server keeps up with new connection requests on the backlog of the server, how well the server establishes new connections, and whether the server drops connections. This value is treated as a percentage and is used to adjust the net weight. Communications server health is applicable only for z/OS workload servers. Otherwise this value is set to 0.
CPU Weight The CPU factor in the WLM weight. This is the amount of displaceable general CPU capacity based on the importance of the server application as compared to other server instances (active on the same site) that are defined for this workload and modified by the proportion of general CPU capacity that is used by this server, as compared to zAAP and zIIP processors. CPU weight is applicable only for z/OS workload servers. Otherwise this value is set to 0.
Image Name The name of the operating system where the server application or queue manager resides. For Linux on z Systems guest servers, the value contains the z/VM system ID where the server guest and agent guest are active.
IP Address The IPv4 or IPv6 address of a server application or the MQ queue manager listener that is defined for the workload. The IP address is applicable only for Linux on z Systems, z/OS workload servers, and MQ workload clusters. Otherwise this value is set to N/A.
IP Address Port For NetView product internal use. This attribute is the concatenation of the IP Address and Port attribute values and is used to depict the x-axis in the bar chart view. The format of the concatenated values is ip:port, where ip is the IP Address value and port is the Port value. The IP address and port are applicable only for Linux on z Systems workload servers, z/OS workload servers, and MQ workload clusters. Otherwise this value is set to 0.
Job Name The MVS job name of the server application (SNA and z/OS workload servers) or MQ queue manager. The job name is applicable only for SNA workload servers, z/OS workload servers, and MQ workload clusters. Otherwise this value is set to N/A.
Net Weight
For z/OS TCP/IP server applications, the net weight for this server
application relative to other server instances that are defined for this workload on the same site.
This value is calculated by applying the Communications Server health as a percentage of the WLM
weight for this server. It is then normalized against the other server instances (active on this
same site) that are defined for this workload.
For z/OS SNA applications, the net
weight for this SNA application relative to other SNA application instances that are defined for
this workload on the same site. This value is determined by using the WLM weight for this system. It
is then normalized against the other SNA application instances (active on this same site) that are
defined for this workload.
For Linux on z Systems server applications, the net weight
for this server application relative to other server instances that are defined for this workload on
the same site. This value is determined by assigning a 1 for active server instances and a 0 for
inactive server instances.
For MQ workload clusters, the net weight for this MQ cluster queue manager relative to
other MQ cluster queue managers that are defined for this workload on the same site. This value is
determined by using the WLM weight for this system. It is then normalized against the other MQ
cluster queue managers (active on the same site) that are defined for this workload.
Network ID The name of the network where the application resides. The network ID is applicable only for SNA workload servers. Otherwise this value is set to N/A.
Origin Node The parent node of the workspace.
Port The number of the port on which the server application or MQ queue manager listens. The port number is applicable only for Linux on z Systems workload servers, z/OS workload servers, and MQ workload clusters. Otherwise this value is set to N/A.
- Yes (1): The queue manager is available for the workload when the queues configured to the Multi-Site Workload Lifeline Advisor are also defined to the MQ Queue manager and can have messages queued to them.
- No (2): The queue manager is not available for the workload when one or more of the queues configured to the Multi-Site Workload Lifeline Advisor are not defined to the MQ Queue manager or cannot have messages queued to them.
Queue Manager Name The name of the WebSphere MQ queue manager that hosts the specified cluster.The queue manager name is applicable only for MQ workload clusters.
Server Correlator For NetView product internal use.
Server Count For NetView product internal use. This attribute is needed to generate the bar chart view.
Server Guest Name The name of the Linux on z Systems guest where the workload server application resides. The server guest name is applicable only for Linux on z Systems workload servers. Otherwise this value is set to N/A.
Server Health The health indicator of the server application. This indicator is available only for servers that provide this information to Workload Manager. For servers that are healthy or are not reporting this information, a value of 100 is returned. This value is treated as a percentage and is used to adjust the reported WLM weight. Server health is applicable only for z/OS workload servers. Otherwise this value is set to 0.
Server State The state of the server application. The following values are valid:
- ACTIVE (1)
- INACTIVE (2)
- Linux on z Systems
- SNA
- z/OS
- MQ Cluster
- If the site_name parameter is configured for the Multi-site Workload Lifeline
Agent, the site name is the name specified for the parameter.
- The site_name parameter is required for a Linux on z Systems Management Agent and is optional for a z/OS Agent.
- If the site_name parameter is not configured for the z/OS Agent, the site name is the name of the sysplex as it is known to the z/OS operating system.
WLM Weight The Workload Manager (WLM) weight value for the server application or MQ queue manager. This value is a measure of how well the server application or MQ queue manager is meeting its configured WLM goals. It represents the amount of displaceable processor capacity based on the importance of the server application or MQ queue manager as compared to other server or MQ queue manager instances (active on this same site) that are defined for this workload. The WLM weight is a composite weight and comprises the sum of the CP, zAAP, and zIIP weights. WLM weight is applicable only for z/OS workload servers and MQ workload clusters. Otherwise this value is set to 0.
Workload Correlator For NetView product internal use.
Workload Lifeline Advisor Correlator For NetView product internal use.
zAAP Weight The zAAP factor in the WLM weight. This is the amount of displaceable zAAP capacity based on the importance of the server application as compared to other server instances (active on this same site) that are defined for this workload and modified by the proportion of zAAP capacity that is used by this server, as compared to general CPU and zIIP processors. zAAP weight is applicable only for z/OS workload servers. Otherwise this value is set to 0.
zIIP Weight The zIIP factor in the WLM weight. This is the amount of displaceable zIIP capacity based on the importance of the server application as compared to other server instances (active on this same site) that are defined for this workload and modified by the proportion of zIIP capacity that is used by this server, as compared to general CPU and zAAP processors. zIIP weight is applicable only for z/OS workload servers. Otherwise this value is set to 0.
z/OS Site Name The name of the site (i.e. the sysplex name), as it is known to the z/OS operating system, where the server application or MQ queue manager resides.
