Note: When specifying values for parameters or subparameters that include both unit and volser fields, you must either define both the Unit and Volser fields, or leave both of them blank. Do not enter a value for only one of them
Table 140 Calculating the space allocation for the Report file
Parameter
Description
Number of rules invocations per day.
The number of rule invocations per day.
Maximum: 9 digits.
Number of days invocations data is to be retained
The number of days for which invocations data is to be retained.
Maximum: 9 digits.
Data Comp
Data component of the Report file. This parameter has the following subparameters:
DUAL – Whether dual (mirror) image processing is implemented. The contents of the dual file are kept synchronized by Control‑M/Analyzer with the contents of the primary Report file. Use of the dual file provides data recovery capabilities if the primary Report file becomes damaged or inaccessible. Valid values are: — Y – Allocate a dual (mirror) image Report file. — N – Do not allocate a dual (mirror) image Report file.
DUALM – Whether execution terminates if a non-recoverable I/O error occurs while processing the dual image file. This parameter is only relevant if dual image file processing is implemented. Valid values are: — Y – Terminate execution if a nonrecoverable I/O error occurs while processing the dual (mirror) image Report file. — N – Continue execution if a nonrecoverable I/O error occurs while processing the dual (mirror) image Report file.
DUALST – Whether Control‑M/Analyzer performs timestamp checkpoint processing to ensure that the primary file and dual image file are fully synchronized. Enabling this option ensures greater data integrity at the expense of increasing I/O processing overhead. — Y – Perform timestamp checkpoint processing. — N – Do not perform timestamp checkpoint processing.
Index Comp
Index component of the Report file. This parameter has the following subparameters:
DUAL – Whether dual (mirror) image processing is implemented. The contents of the dual file are kept synchronized by Control‑M/Analyzer with the contents of the primary Report file. Use of the dual file provides data recovery capabilities if the primary Report file becomes damaged or inaccessible. Valid values are: — Y – Allocate a dual (mirror) image Report file. BMC recommends that you do not use a dual file for the Index Component. — N – Do not allocate a dual (mirror) image Report file.
DUALM – Whether execution terminates if a non-recoverable I/O error occurs while processing the dual image file. This parameter is only relevant if dual image file processing is implemented. Valid values are: — Y – Terminate execution if a nonrecoverable I/O error occurs while processing the dual (mirror) image Report file. — N – Continue execution if a nonrecoverable I/O error occurs while processing the dual (mirror) image Report file.
DUALST – Whether Control‑M/Analyzer performs timestamp checkpoint processing to ensure that the primary file and dual image file are fully synchronized. Enabling this option ensures greater data integrity at the expense of increasing I/O processing overhead. — Y – Perform timestamp checkpoint processing. — N – Do not perform timestamp checkpoint processing.
Main Data
The primary data component.
This parameter has the following subparameters:
Unit type – The unit type to which data should be allocated.
Volser – Up to six volsers can be specified.
Main Index
The primary index component.
This parameter has the following subparameters:
Unit type – The unit type to which data should be allocated.
Volser – Up to six volsers can be specified.
Dual Data
The dual data component.
This parameter has the following subparameters:
Unit type – The unit type to which data should be allocated.
Volser – Up to six volsers can be specified.
Dual Index
The dual index component.
This parameter has the following subparameters:
Unit type – The unit type to which data should be allocated.
Volser – Up to six volsers can be specified.
The space requirements are calculated based on the values you specify.
To apply the allocation that has just been calculated, type Y in the Use this space allocation in subsequent installation steps ? field, and press Enter.
