Coupling facilities provide communication between members of a sysplex to coordinate locking and buffer pool information. The Coupling Facility Structures Data for Sysplex workspace, accessed from the Navigator, presents information for each coupling facility structure throughout the sysplex.
The User Count bar chart graphically displays the total number of connected users and the number of users connected in an exception state for all structures with a problem user count greater than zero.
The Percentage of CF System Total Storage bar chart show the amount of the total allocated storage currently in use.
The Coupling Facility Structures table view provides the name, type, and status of each structure and statistics such as synchronous and asynchronous requests, allocated storage and percentage of storage in use, number of maximum possible and current users.
From the Coupling Facility Structures table you can link to the following workspaces, which provide detailed information on the selected structure:
