Adjusted transaction unit

The adjusted transaction unit is the value calculated and tested by Oracle that represents additional cost per base transaction unit when the configuration deviates from the base configuration.

Configuration scenarios and their TU values for IPGWx (M3UA), IPLIMx (M2PA) and IPSG (M3UA and M2PA) are shown in Table 5-9, Table 5-10, and Table 5-11. For more information on calculating throughput based on transaction units, see How to calculate transaction units per second (TPS).

Note:

When computing TU cost for configuration attributes such as size and number of connections/links on IPSG cards the TU used will be from Table 5-10 or Table 5-11, depending on whether an E5-ENET or E5-ENET-B card is used and the status of the E5-ENET-B IPSG High Throughput feature.

^Footnote 1 Open Connections and Active SLKs are not always synonymous, depending on the GPL. For IPLIM, one SLK equals one connection. For IPGW, one SLK can equal up to 50 connections. For IPSG, one connection equals at least one SLK.

Additional Transaction Units cost enforced by the IPSG application per Transaction for an E5-ENET-B card when the E5-ENET-B IPSG High Throughput feature is turned off, an E5-ENET card is shown in Table 5-10.

Additional Transaction Units cost enforced by IPSG application per Transaction when the E5-ENET-B IPSG configuration deviates from the configuration described in Table 5-5 and the E5-ENET-B IPSG High Throughput feature is turned on are shown in Table 5-11.

Note:

When calculating the values for the Average MSU SIF size >120, Number of Links >4, and Association RTT > 50, the values from the division in the formula are rounded to the quotient. In addition, the final values for the Transaction Unit Adjustment and Transaction Unit Cost values for Average MSU SIF size are rounded to the nearest 10 value if the delta is not a multiple of 10.

For an E5-ENET-B IPSG Capacity calculation with the E5-ENET-B IPSG High Throughput feature turned on, the total TU adjustments factors should be derived by adding TU factors for each of the following as applicable:

• Additional features such as SCCP Class-1 Sequencing, SLAN/IMF copy, SCCP conversion as shown in Table 5-10
• Large MSU as shown in Table 5-8
• Configuration above baseline as shown in Table 5-11
