XCF Systems Data for Sysplex workspace

The XCF Systems Data for Sysplex shows path information for all cross-system coupling facilities (XCF) defined to the sysplex, as well as the status of each system in the sysplex.

The workspace contains two table views:

Performance information such as the Status and Retry Percent indicates whether any of the XCF paths are causing performance problems for the Sysplex. If a path becomes overloaded or unavailable, or the retry percentage is consistently high, you might need to adjust the parameters in the COUPLExx member of SYS1.PARMLIB.

From the XCF Systems table you can link to the XCF System Statistics workspace, which provides information on message traffic to or from the selected system.

This workspace can collect history data.
