Abstract

PURPOSE:To execute the effective use of resources such as the paper necessary for a report output by freely setting a time base scale by the time length at the editing section. CONSTITUTION:The title system is composed of an on-line message processing means 1, a log file 2, an editing section determining means 3, a scale setting means 4, a scale storing area 5, a time series information storing means 6, a time series information storing area 7, an editing output means 8, a transaction execution time series chart report 9 and a job control language 10. The time base scale at the time of displaying the transaction execution time series chart report 9 based on the time length of the editing section can be freely set by instructing by a user. Thus, the output quantity and the information quantity of the report can be adjusted, and the resources such as paper necessary for the report output can be effectively used.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a method for displaying transaction execution time-series information, and particularly to a method for displaying transaction execution time-series information in an online message processing system.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, in this type of transaction execution time-series chart report, the level of detail of information display in charting time-series information has been fixed.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the conventional method described above, the degree of detail of information display in diagramming is fixed, so the user cannot freely set it.

In addition, in the conventional method, there is a proportional relationship between the length of the editing section and the amount of output, so when editing long information, the amount of output becomes enormous, and resources such as paper required for report output cannot be used effectively. was there.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The transaction execution time series diagram editing method according to the present invention uses a log file in which operating information regarding transaction execution in an online processing system is stored, and a specified editing start that is activated when operating information is displayed. Editing section determining means for determining an editing section based on the end time and requesting time-series information retrieval, and details of information display when editing operating information based on the time length of the editing section determined by the editing section determining means. a scale setting means for setting a time axis scale as a time scale and storing it in a scale storage area; and a scale setting means for reading operation information from the log file in response to a request for retrieving the time series information based on the time axis scale in the scale storage area and performing a transaction. a time-series information storage means for analyzing operation information of the time-series information and extracting the time-series information and storing it in a time-series information storage area; and an editing output means for graphically outputting the contents of the time-series information storage area stored by the time-series information storage means. It consists of:

(Example) Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of the transaction execution time series diagram editing method according to the present invention, which includes an online message processing means 1, a log file 2, an editing section determining means 3, a scale setting means 4, and a scale storage. Area 5,
Time series information storage means 6, time series information storage area 7, editing output means 8, transaction execution time series chart report 9
, job control language 10.

FIG. 2 shows an example of setting sections. FIG. 3 shows an example of the configuration of the time series information storage area 7.

FIG. 4 shows an example of the output of transaction execution time series chart Revoto 9.

Next, the operation of the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

The online message processing means 1 receives an input message, executes a transaction according to the message, and writes transaction performance information for each transaction to a log file 2 every time the transaction execution is completed.

The transaction performance information includes the time when the online message processing means 1 received the message, the elapsed time of execution of the transaction, the name of the task that executed the transaction, and the like.

The editing interval determining means 3 is activated by the job control language 10 when outputting the transaction execution time series chart report 9, sets the editing start time and editing end time specified in the job control language 10 as the editing interval, and sets the editing interval as the editing interval. Make a request to retrieve series information.

After the editing section is determined by the editing section determining section 3, the scale setting means 4 calculates a scale calculation formula + based on the time length of the editing section.
5 = AT (where 28 is the time axis scale, T is the time length of the editing section, and A is a constant), and set the time (time axis scale) S of the minimum interval in the display as the level of detail of information display. Then, the time axis scale is stored in the scale storage area 5.

Time series information storage means 6 that received a time series information retrieval request
extracts transaction operation information from log file 2 to 1
The transaction processing wait state from message reception to the time when transaction execution started, and the transaction execution state of the elapsed execution time from the time when transaction execution started, are obtained and stored in the time-series information storage area 7. Store as series information. Time series information is retrieved in units of sections, . Information for each section is stored in the position of the corresponding task in the information storage area 7. FIG. 3 is an example in which the transaction execution state is indicated by O and the transaction processing waiting state is indicated by X. Here, times T1 to T6 in the time series information storage area 7 indicate the start time of each section.

After the storage by the time series information storage means 6 is completed, the editing output means 8 displays the contents of the time series information storage area 7, the processing waiting state and execution state of each transaction for each section, and displays the transaction operation information. Diagram. FIG. 4 is an example in which the transaction execution state is indicated by *** and the transaction processing waiting state is indicated by +++.

Furthermore, it is possible to change the time axis scale in the scale storage area 5 to a value instructed by the job control language 10.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, the present invention allows the user to freely set the time axis scale when displaying a transaction execution time series chart report based on the time length of the editing section, This has the advantage that it is possible to adjust the output amount and information amount of the report.

Furthermore, by automatically setting the time axis scale based on the time length of the editing section, long-term operating information can be roughly edited, and short-term operating information can be edited in detail. This allows the output information to be understood in the same way regardless of the length of time, which has the effect of making system analysis easier.

Further, even if the information is long-term, the amount of output is limited, and there is an advantage that resources such as paper required for outputting a report can be used effectively.
