Issue/Introduction

The DB00819I message is a Business Value Metric (BVM) display introduced as a default Multi-User Facility (MUF) startup option in recent maintenance. This message provides performance details such as requests per elapsed second, requests per CPU second, and I/O event counts. While providing useful diagnostic data, the message may appear frequently (e.g., every two minutes) in the job log.

Cause

Recent maintenance enabled the Business Value Metric (BVM) display by default in the Multi-User Facility (MUF) startup options.

Resolution

To manage or suppress the DB00819I message, use one of the following methods.

Route the Message to a Separate Spool File

To retain the performance data for diagnostic purposes without flooding the job log, route the message to the DD@MSG output file.

  1. Locate the Datacom MUF SYSIN file (it would be the AXDATIN1 member in the custom macro library--CUSMAC--for Datacom/AD).
  2. Add the following statement: 
    MESSAGE DD@MSG,DB00819 -- TWO MINUTE PERFORMANCE MSG
  3. The change takes effect at the next Multi-User Facility (MUF) startup.

Disable the Message in the Current Execution

To immediately stop the message from appearing without restarting the Multi-User Facility (MUF), issue the following console command:

/F <mufname>,MESSAGE NO,DB00819

Permanently Disable the Message

To prevent the message from being produced in future Multi-User Facility (MUF) executions:

  1. Locate the Daatacom MUF SYSIN file.
  2. Add the following startup option:
     BUSINESS_VALUE_METRIC_1 NO
