MEASCHMA
To find the subvolume name for SYS nn on your system, use the TACL STATUS *
command. SYS nn is the subvolume that contains the OSIMAGE file.
MEASCHMA
The MEASCHMA file contains the structure declarations for C and TAL. Its output is
similar to the output of the MEASDECS file.
MEASCOM
MEASCOM is the Measure command interpreter process. MEASCOM accepts and
processes commands entered at the terminal or executed in a command file. You can
control and access multiple measurements with one MEASCOM process.
MEASCTL
MEASCTL is the Measure control process. It performs these functions:
•
Allocates and initializes counter records whenever a measurement starts
•
Writes counter records to a data file whenever a measurement starts and stops
and at user-specified collection intervals
•
Deallocates counter records whenever a measurement stops
•
Displays snapshots of active counter records for viewing
The MEASMON process creates a MEASCTL process in each CPU of the local
system when the subsystem is started.
MEASDDLS
The MEASDDLS file contains the Data Definition Language (DDL) record definitions
used for structured files of measurement data, After generating a structured file, you
can use the Enform query language or SQL/MP to create custom reports from the
data.
In Measure G11 and later PVUs, the DDL run command must include a DICT! directive
to create a DDL dictionary.
MEASDDLF
The MEASDDLF file contains DDL record definitions for use by FORTRAN programs.
MEASDDLB
The MEASDDLB file contains DDL record definitions for use by COBOL programs.
Note. The MEASCTL, MEASFH, and MEASMON processes must be on the active system
subvolume (SYSnn). Other Measure files can be located on other subvolumes.
