OSA-Express3 Ports Throughput Attributes

Use the OSA-Express3 Ports Throughput attributes to monitor individual ports on an OSA-Express3 feature.

There can be two physical ports on each OSA Channel Path Identifier (CHPID), and each contains different data. On z/OS verion 1.10 or later, when two ports are present, each one is assigned a separate ifIndex by the operating system. Each ifIndex contains the data for the corresponding port.

64 Byte Packets Received The number of packets received by the OSA during the most recent time interval that are exactly 64 bytes in length. This count does not include flow-control packets. The format is an unsigned integer.

Note: 64 bytes is the minimum length for an Ethernet packet. Packets shorter than 64 bytes have to be padded. This value is of interest because it indicates whether the LAN is configured incorrectly and not performing up to capacity.

64 Byte Packets Transmitted The number of packets transmitted by the OSA during the most recent time interval that are exactly 64 bytes in length. This count does not include flow-control packets. The format is an unsigned integer.

Note: 64 bytes is the minimum length for an Ethernet packet. Packets shorter than 64 bytes have to be padded. This value is of interest because it indicates whether the LAN is configured incorrectly and not performing up to capacity.

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:
