The customer has asked me for some reponse time figures. This is the scenerio - ALL-IN-1 2.4 VMS 5.4-2 MR 3.2 Messages are sent from PROFS to SOFTSWITCH to MESSAGE ROUTER to ALL-IN-1 node and then delivered to users. What we're trying to measure is the time from MR to ALL-IN-1. The sender and Fetcher run every 7 minutes and 8 minutes. The last 5 runs of the sender and fetcher average to 1 minute for sender and 2 minutes for fetcher. Customer is using 7.5 minutes to go from SSW to MR. They had been using 10 minutes for time from MR to ALL-IN-1. The sender/fetcher used to run every 10 minutes. So, I guess my question is if the sender/fetcher run every 10 minutes (for example) and the time from SSW to MR is 7.5 minutes then - the longest time that it should take for a message to go from SSW to MR to ALL-IN-1 is 17.5 minutes. This is just a "best guess" effort. I would assume that this would also depend on the actual number of messages in the sender and fetcher and the size of the messages. This number is used as a baseline. Actual message delivery times are compared to the baseline (in this example 17.5 minutes for 1 way delivery). Those abovethe baseline are "bad" and those below the baseline are "good". I hope this doesn't sound more complicated than it is. thanks - ann

Don't say 'the longest time it can take is . . .'!! It can ALWAYS take longer! For instance, by default, the fetcher and sender will not run at the same time - so you may have to wait for more than one fetcher submission. grahame |
