Hi All,

I am working as a vendor for our client.Recently I got mail from client side that my mainframe utilization is high.I just want to know that Is there any logs are present which i can check for the jobs which took high mainframe utilization.

I believe that the mainframe performance management team and /or capacity planning team would have the right monitoring tools and trends of the data that you are looking for.
Or you would want to process the RMF, RMF provides performance and usage instrumentation of resources.

Hi Vasanth,

Thanks for the Info. I tried RMF screen.but not able to understand that which option i have to select for getting utilization on my RACF Id.

Can you able to give some idea on that?

instead of increasing your mainframe usage
in an attempt to identify your high mainframe usage,
why don't you just ask the sender of the email to expand his/her/its comment
and let you know where your potential improvements lay?

at the same time,
once you learn what it is that you are doing,
to cause such undesirable statistics,
you may even be able to justify the usage.
