Real Storage attributes

The Real Storage attribute group provides information about the use of real storage on a z/OS system in terms of various types of frame counts, slot counts, and paging rates.

Area End Address The ending address of an area, in hexadecimal. The end address of the high private area (above the bar area) is shown as 16EB. For a Storage Type of Extended Nucleus, the Area End Address is the higher of the end address of the Extended Read Only Nucleus and the Extended Read Write Nucleus areas. For a Storage Type of Nucleus, Area End Address is the higher of the end address of the Read Only Nucleus and the Read Write Nucleus areas. A valid value is an integer, displayed as a hexadecimal string. A value of 1 indicates "16EB".

Area Start Address The starting address of an area, in hexadecimal. The starting address of the high private area (above the bar area) is shown as 2G. 6. For a Storage Type of Extended Nucleus, Area Start Address is the lower of the start address of the Extended Read Only Nucleus and the Extended Read Write Nucleus areas. For a Storage Type of Nucleus, Area Start Address is the lower of the start address of the Read Only Nucleus and the Read Write Nucleus areas. A valid value is an integer, displayed as a hexadecimal string. A value of 1 indicates "2G".

Available Frames The number of pageable frames available to the system. A valid value is a long long integer.

Available Frames (Deprecated) The number of pageable frames available to the system. A valid value is an integer. A value of -1 indicates "Unavailable".

Frames Used Percent The percentage of frames used (online frames - available frames)/online frames * 100), to one decimal point. A valid value is a number to one decimal place accuracy. The range for this value is from 0 to 100.0.

Managed System The z/OS operating system in your enterprise that an OMEGAMON for z/OS agent is monitoring. A valid value is a string of up to 32 characters.

Migration Age The time in seconds that has passed since the oldest frame of expanded storage was last referenced. This column is applicable to expanded storage, but not to central storage. A valid value is an integer.

Migration Rate The number of pages per second that are being moved from expanded to auxiliary storage. This column is applicable to expanded storage, but not to central storage. A valid value is a number to one decimal place accuracy.

Offline Frames The number of frames of this type that have been varied offline either by means of a z/OS command or by the system itself. A valid value is a long long integer.

Offline Frames (Deprecated) The number of frames of this type that have been varied offline either by means of a z/OS command or by the system itself. A valid value is an integer.

Online Frames The number of storage frames of this type that are online or accessible to this processor. A valid value is a long long integer.

Online Frames (Deprecated) The number of storage frames of this type that are online or accessible to this processor. A valid value is an integer. A value of -1 indicates "Unavailable".

Pages Read From Expanded The number of pages per second that are being moved from expanded to central storage. A valid value is an integer.

Pages Written To Expanded The number of pages per second that are being moved from central to expanded storage. A valid value is an integer.

Storage Type Type of storage area. A valid value is an integer, displayed as a hexadecimal string. The range for this value is from 0 to 255. Values appear on the workspace as follows:

Total Fixed Frames Total number of fixed frames for this image. The Total Fixed Frames value is the sum of the Total Fixed Frames Allocated column for all the storage areas listed in the Real Storage view. A valid value is a long long integer.

Total Fixed Frames (Deprecated) Total number of fixed frames for this image. The Total Fixed Frames value is the sum of the Total Fixed Frames Allocated column for all the storage areas listed in the Real Storage view. A valid value is an integer. A value of -1 indicates "Unavailable".

Total Fixed Frames Allocated Number of fixed frames allocated to an area. A valid value is an integer.

Total Frames Total number of frames for this image. The Total Frames value is the sum of the Total Frames Allocated column for all the storage areas listed in the Real Central Storage view. A valid value is a long long integer.

Total Frames (Deprecated) Total number of frames for this image. The Total Frames value is the sum of the Total Frames Allocated column for all the storage areas listed in the Real Central Storage view. A valid value is an integer. A value of -1 indicates "Unavailable".

Total Frames Allocated The total number of frames allocated to an area. A valid value is an integer.

Total Kilobytes Allocated The size of the area, in kilobytes. A valid value is an integer. A value of 1 indicates "16EB-2G".

Unreferenced Interval Count Represents the time in seconds for a complete steal cycle. A complete steal cycle is the time the stealing routine needs to check all frames in the system. When there is a demand for storage, the stealing routine tests the reference bit of a frame, decides whether to steal the frame, and schedules the page-out. A valid value is an integer.
