Viewing HSF Information as a .csv File

Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.

If you have enabled the collection and writing of HSF records to disk, you can view details of individual runs of transactions in comma-separated files that you can import into a spreadsheet. These files contain one HSF record per line. The filenames are cashsf-a.csv and cashsf-b.csv.

Once the active file is full, or when you click the Switch button in ESMAC, records are then written to the alternate file until the maximum file size is reached or the Switch button is clicked.

The files are saved in the system directory.

The .csv files have the header:
#HSFver=02
Type,PID,Task,Date,Time,Tran/Job,User/DDName/CC,LU/Step,Prog/DSName,Latent/ReadCount,Resp/WriteCount,
API/RewriteCount,SQL/DeleteCount,IMS/DSDeleteCount,DSType,DSAccessType,File1,Count1,Time1,File2,Count2,
Time2,File3,Count3,Time3,File4,Count4,Time4,File5,Count5,Time5,TS1,Count1,Time1,TS2,Count2,Time2,TS3,
Count3,Time3,TS4,Count4,Time4,TS5,Count5,Time5,TD1,Count1,Time1,TD2,Count2,Time2,TD3,Count3,Time3,TD4,
Count4,Time4,TD5,Count5,Time5
and contain the following fields.
Important:
This version of the product generates cashsf-n.csv files that start with the line:
#HSFVer=02
HSF output from earlier versions of the product may either not have this line at all, or start with:
#HSFVer=01
Earlier .csv files do not have the DSType and DSAccessType fields, and either have this header:
#HSFVer=01
Type,PID,Task,Date,Time,Tran,User,LU,Prog,Latent,Resp,API,SQL,IMS,File1,Count1,Time1,File2,Count2,Time2,
File3,Count3,Time3,File4,Count4,Time4,File5,Count5,Time5,TS1,Count1,Time1,TS2,Count2,Time2,TS3,Count3,
Time3,TS4,Count4,Time4,TS5,Count5,Time5

or, without the IMS field:

Type,PID,Task,Date,Time,Tran,User,LU,Prog,Latent,Resp,API,SQL,File1,Count1,Time1,File2,Count2,
Time2,File3,Count3,Time3,File4,Count4,Time4,File5,Count5,Time5,TS1,Count1,Time1,TS2,Count2,Time2,TS3,
Count3,Time3,TS4,Count4,Time4,TS5,Count5,Time5
