Catalog Files
Catalog Files
Each SMF process uses its own catalog, which is a group of files enabled by TMF
containing persistent configuration and status information needed for process start up
and execution. When you start a process for the first time, three catalog files are set
up, the $ZSMS catalog, the storage pool process catalog, and the virtual disk process
catalog.
$ZSMS Catalog
Five files make up the $ZSMS catalog:
DISKTHRESHOLD
DISKTHRESHOLD
Specifies a threshold at which the disk
processes associated with physical
volumes in the storage pool should emit
an EMS disk full event.
DISKINTERVAL
DISKINTERVAL
Specifies a percent interval at which disk
full events should be generated after the
DISKTHRESHOLD value has been
reached.
EXTENTTHRESHOLD
EXTENTTHRESHOLD
Specifies a threshold at which the disk
processes associated with physical
volumes in the storage pool should emit
an EMS file full event.
EXTENTINTERVAL
EXTENTINTERVAL
Specifies an extent interval at which file
full events should be generated after the
EXTENTTHRESHOLD value has been
reached.
Virtual disk process attribute set:
STARTDOWN
STARTSTATE
Specifies if the execution state of the
virtual disk process should be set to UP
or DOWN when the process is started.
This is useful if you are trying to
diagnose a problem and do not want
processes to start automatically, or if you
have a large SMF configuration and want
to bring up parts of it separately.
CACHESIZE
CACHESIZE
Specifies the number of file mappings in
the SMF name cache. In some cases,
this can be used to improve file open
performance. See
IDENTITY
Contains the name of the process that created the catalog.
