OSA 10 Gigabit Ports Throughput Attributes

Use the OSA 10 Gigabit Ports Throughput attributes to monitor a port on an OSA-Express2 10 Gigabit Ethernet feature.

Broadcast Packets Received The number of good (without error) broadcast packets received by the OSA during the most recent time interval. The format is an unsigned integer.

Broadcast Packets Transmitted The number of broadcast packets transmitted by the OSA during the most recent time interval. The format is an unsigned integer.

Channel Number The channel path identifier (CHPID) corresponding to this device. The format is a string of two hexadecimal characters.

Collection Time The time and date of the data sampling. This time is displayed in the following format:

mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss

Where:

The stored format is a string no longer than 16 characters in the format CYYMMDDHHMMSSmmm (as in 1020315064501000 for 03/15/02 06:45:01) where:

Host Name The host name of the TCP/IP stack. The format is an alphanumeric string no longer than 255 characters.

Jumbo Packets Received The number of good (without error) packets of jumbo size (defined as > 1518 bytes and <= maxFrameSize) received by the OSA during the most recent time interval. The format is an unsigned integer.

The maximum transmission unit (MTU) is the maximum packet size, in bytes, that can be sent on an interface. In queued direct I/O (QDIO) mode, the MTU size used by the OSA feature is 8992 bytes. In non-QDIO mode, the MTU size used by the OSA is 1492 bytes. You can set the MTU size (as long as you stay within the limits and maximum values of the OSA) using TCP/IP profile statements. You can also set the parameters of the neighboring network interface card (NIC) and port (usually a port on a switch, but could be another OSA). For information about setting maximum size for OSA devices, see the IBM z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference.

Jumbo Packets Transmitted The number packets of jumbo size (defined as > 1518 bytes and <= maxFrameSize) transmitted by the OSA during the current collection period. The format is an unsigned integer.

Multicast Packets Received The number of good (without error) multicast packets received by the OSA during the most recent time interval. The format is an unsigned integer.

Multicast Packets Transmitted The number of multicast packets transmitted by the OSA during the most recent time interval. The format is an unsigned integer.

Origin Node The unique identifier for the TCP/IP stack being displayed. The format is an alphanumeric string no longer than 32 characters.

Port Name The name of the port as specified by the VTAM Transport Resource List Entry (TRLE). The format is a 16-character alphanumeric string.

Port Number The physical port number for this port. Currently, this value can be only zero (0). The format is an integer.

System ID The SMF system ID. The format is an alphanumeric string no longer than 4 characters.

TCPIP STC Name The name of the TCP/IP job. The format is an alphanumeric string no longer than 8 characters.

Total Broadcast Packets Received The number of good (without error) broadcast packets received by the OSA since the last time the OSA port was reset. The format is an unsigned integer.

Total Broadcast Packets Transmitted The number of broadcast packets transmitted by the OSA since the last time the OSA port was reset. The format is an unsigned integer.

Total Jumbo Packets Received The number of good (without error) packets of jumbo size (defined as >1518 bytes and <= maxFrameSize) received by the OSA since the last time the OSA port was reset. The format is an unsigned integer.
