- Chart area
- The chart provides a graphical representation of the current DSA
and EDSA total, the peak DSA and EDSA total, the current DSA and EDSA
used, and the current DSA and EDSA program storage over a number of
intervals. If enough intervals are available, the chart shows a maximum
of 12 intervals: six before and five after the selected interval.
Each interval is shown as a separate column in the chart, and shows
the time, interval number, current active user transactions, peak
active user transactions, and current value of MAXTASK. The column
for the currently selected interval is shaded. The bars and points
on the chart provide an indication of the value, not an actual value.
To see the actual values for an interval, hover over an area in the
column to display a tooltip that shows actual values.
- Data area
- The data area shows specific statistical information about the
loader and the DSAs during the selected interval. You can click the
columns to change the interval selection. A number of values in the
data area are color-coded to match the colors of values on the chart.
To change the colors, click the Configure chart colors hyperlink,
and select Interval traces in the Chart Colors
pane in the Preferences window.
You can click
the DSA or EDSA hyperlink to display the LDG Loader DSA
or EDSA view and view loader and dynamic storage areas
statistics for the selected DSA.
