摘要:
An Extended Input/output (I/O) measurement word facility is provided. Provision is made for emulation of the Extended I/O measurement word facility. The facility provides for storing measurement data associated with a single I/O operation in an extended measurement word associated with an I/O response block. In a further aspect, the stored data may have a resolution of approximately one-half microsecond.

An Input/output (I/O) measurement block facility is provided that creates subchannel measurement blocks (comprising device busy values) related to performance of an I/O operation of a subchannel, wherein a device busy time value is a sum of time intervals when the subchannel is device busy during an attempt to initiate any one of a start function or a resume function at the subchannel.

I/O measurement data for channels attached to logical control unit queues is obtained related to a plurality of logical control unit queues. A store secondary queue measurement data instruction specifies a range of queues for which extended secondary measurement blocks derived from the I/O measurement data are stored at a memory address specified by the store secondary queue measurement data instruction.

An Extended Input/output (I/O) measurement block facility is emulated. The facility provides for the collection of relevant I/O measurement data, and the storing for later efficient retrieval of that data in an extended measurement block. The stored data relates to the performance of an I/O subchannel.
摘要:
Input/output (I/O) measurement facilities are provided. An extended I/O measurement block facility is provided that enables measurement blocks to be stored in discontiguous areas of main storage and to be accessed directly via addresses. In a further aspect, an extended I/O measurement word facility is provided that facilitates the obtaining of measurement data for single I/O operations.
摘要:
I/O measurement data associated with the performance of an I/O operation process is gathered during the I/O process. The I/O measurement data is saved in an IRB memory location specified by a test subchannel instruction. An I/O interrupt signals the completion of the I/O operation process.

摘要:
Provides a method for increasing the connectivity of I/O resources to a multiplicity of operating systems (OSs) running in different resource partitions of a computer electronic complex (CEC) to obtain sharing of the I/O resources among the OSs of the CEC, including channels, subchannels (devices), and control units (CUs). The invention provides image identifiers (IIDs) for assigning resources to the different OSs. Each shared I/O resource has a sharing set of control blocks (CBs) in which a respective CB is assigned to (and located by) a respective IID of one of the OSs. Each of the CBs in a sharing set provides a different image of the same I/O resource. The different CB images are independently set to different states by I/O operations for the different OSs, so that the OSs can independently share the same I/O resource.
摘要:
This invention involves reconfiguration support for shared I/O resources in a a computer electronic complex (CEC) supporting both shared and unshared I/O channels of the type described and claimed in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 07/898,867 (PO9-92-016) filed on the same day as the subject application and assigned to the same assignee as the subject application. Prior channel subsystem call (CHSC) instructions cannot execute when a channel is to be configured as shareable by plural operating systems in a CEC.
