Introduction
ZRP needs to get data from the Zetaly database to create SMF references.
It extracts data from three levels : CPC, LPAR, Report Class.
CPC Data
The CPC data used by ZRP are in the cecHist table from the Zetaly database. This table is an aggregate of SMF 70 records. To be able to get data from this table, you need to load the "Cec Activity History" view.
ZRP needs to have the smallest SMF interval possible to be efficient. Therefore you must configure your "LoadViews" for the "Cec Activity History" with a period of "AnyTime".
LPAR Data
All LPAR data comes from the msuData table from the Zetaly database. This table contains SMF 70 records.
Report Class Data
Report class data is in wlmData. It contains SMF 72 records.
Report class are defined in the mainframe. It is important to define relevant report class to be able to use ZRP. If no report class is defined, ZRP will create a default report class named "Undefined".
From September package the report classes details will not be retrieved. However, as mentionned above, a default report class will still be created.
Software Products
Software Products data are in swStateData. It contains SMF 89 subtype 2 records.
