Accounting for z/VM Servers

At the z/VM level, installations will want to provide accounting by

• CPU Second consumed
• resident storage
• DASD I/O, disk space

The database extracts are very simple and look like the following, extracting by user, the account number, cpu consumed, pages resident, and virtual I/O. Users only in the *Linux class are extracted, and only during prime shift.

 
EXTRACT:            ; First extract system data
 
columns ='10 10 10 10 7 8 8 8'
TITLE = 'STARTTIME  STOPTIME  USERID    ACCTNBR      CPU   Pages'
TITLEc= '      VIO'
TITLE = '---------- --------- --------- -------- -------  ------'
TITLEc= ' --------'
 
X = 'STARTTIME'
Y = 'STOPTIME'
Y = 'USERID'
Y = 'USRCON.VMDACTNO'
Y = 'USEACT.VMDTTIME' ; cpu utilization
Y = 'USEACT.VMDCTPVR / 256' ; MB Resident
Y = 'USEACT.VMDVDSCT' ; VIO
 
INTERVAL='SU'
CRITERIA='USRTYPE=USER'
CRITERIA='USRCON.CLASSID=*Linux'
CRITERIA='STARTTIME >= 080000'
CRITERIA='STOPTIME <= 170000'

The results of this extract then would look like the following showing hourly consumption by linux server. This would be input into installation accounting procedures.

 
Date    Time     STARTTIME  STOPTIME    USERID     CPU   Pages     VIO
