What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of identifying which mainframe programs consume the most resources and actually run in production, enabling targeted migration efforts that focus on high-impact workloads while safely retiring dead code.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • MIPS Profiling: Analyzes SMF records to calculate CPU consumption and establish billing baselines for programs and LPARs.
  • Workload Segregation: Separates CICS online transactions from batch jobs, providing SLA metrics and access patterns for VSAM datasets.
  • Dead Code Detection: Cross-references runtime data with inventory to flag unused programs, reducing migration scope.
  • Use Case: For a legacy banking system, use this Skill to process a year's SMF logs and generate a priority matrix that highlights the top 20% of programs driving 80% of MIPS costs, guiding the team to migrate critical transaction processors first.

Quick Start

Analyze the provided SMF Type 30 and 110 records to generate a MIPS baseline and migration priority matrix for our mainframe inventory.
