Application Performance Analyzer for z/OS, Version 11.1, User's Guide

Schedule New Measurement panels

After you have entered the "NEW" line command or "NEW" primary command, the Schedule New Measurement panel group is displayed.

The screens in the Schedule New Measurement dialog are divided into two sections. The top section is fixed and lists the available input panels. The current panel is highlighted. Each panel name is preceded by a symbol indicating if data has been entered to the panel. The symbol appears in green (green light) if data has been entered and is error free. A yellow or red light appears if there are warnings or errors in the data. The lower section of the screen is the input panel. It begins with an identifying heading.

Panel navigation

There are two methods you can use to JUMP from panel to panel:

These can be done in a single operation in combination with entry of input to the current panel. For example, you can enter input to Panel 1, place the cursor on the command line, type 2 and press ENTER. The entry to the Panel 1 input fields will be accepted and Panel 2 will appear. The same applies in this example if you type /2 in one of the data input fields. You must, of course, enter this on a field to which you are not specifying other input.

In some cases, automatic panel navigation occurs, for example, entering a jobname pattern will automatically take you to panel 4 to select from a list of active jobs based on that pattern.

Submitting the request

If you have entered enough data for a complete request to be submitted, "Input more data or ENTER to submit" will be displayed in the panel heading line. Pressing the ENTER key again will submit the request, unless you navigate to another panel to continue entering data.

There is a final confirmation prompt displayed before the request actually gets submitted. If you want to turn off this final confirmation prompt, use the SETUP command while you are in the R03 Schedule New Measurement dialog.

Primary commands

panel number
Enter a single-digit panel number to jump to that panel.
SUBMIT
Use SUBMIT to submit the request immediately and return control to the R02 panel.
JCL
Use JCL to display the JCL and control statements that could be used to request the equivalent measurement request as a batch job using CAZBATCH.

SETUP options

Use the SETUP command to specify various options affecting this dialog:

Prompt for confirmation before submitting ...
By default, this option is selected. Indicate if the final confirmation prompt is to appear or is to be suppressed.
Prompt for confirmation before returning ...
By default, this option is selected. Normally a warning message will appear when the END command (or PF3) is issued after data has been input. This is to warn that the input data will be discarded. Unselect this option to suppress the warning.
Translate CICS® trancode ...
By default, this option is selected. CICS transaction codes entered to Panel 5 will be translated to uppercase. Deselect this option to suppress this translation of lowercase characters.
Suppress warning flags ...
By default, this option is not selected. Select to suppress display of the yellow warning symbols that appear to the left of input fields indicating a warning condition.
