Performance Monitor for VSE & TCP/IP

Platform: z/VSE and VSEⁿ

See-TCP/IP allows you to analyze the activity and performance of your z/VSE, VSEn, and TCP/IP systems from an easy-to-use PC graphical user interface.

See-TCP/IP answers questions like:

  • What is the current CPU usage of my z/VSE system?
  • What was CPU usage yesterday at 3:00 pm?
  • What was the CPU trend for the last two months?
  • Which partitions are using the most resources?

See-TCP/IP collects

1) VSE Turbo Dispatcher Statistics

  • CPU waiting-for-work time
  • CPU non-parallel busy time
  • CPU parallel busy time
  • CPU overhead from other LPARs or VM

2) VSE System Statistics

  • Start subchannel requests
  • I/O interrupts
  • Phase loads
  • SVC usage
  • Program checks
  • External interrupts

3) VSE Partition Statistics

  • Jobname, stepname
  • Start I/O counts
  • CPU usage

4) TCP/IP Statistics

5) Graphical display of overall IP activity

  • Detailed information on active connections
  1. IP address
  2. Local and foreign ports
  3. Bytes sent and received
  4. Retransmits
  5. SWS silly window
  6. Current and maximum window sizes
  • Historical Reporting
  1. Stored in SQL database
  2. With graphical display
  3. Provides trend analysis

See-TCP/IP can be used to

  • Graph overall IP datagram activity real-time
  • Show IP datagram activity by Telnet, FTP, HTTP, and any other local IP applications running on z/VSE
  • Identify which foreign IP addresses are connected to z/VSE

System Requirements

CSI’s TCP/IP for VSE (does not run on other TCP/IP stacks)

PC running Windows 2000 or above on a network that can access the z/VSE system
