Is the network slow?

If messages are not moving fast enough across a channel, this could be because the network is slow. To identify if this is the case, do the following:

1. In the output of the command

   DIS CHSTATUS(QM1.TO.QM2) ALL, check the NETTIME field.

   These indicators are measured when the sending channel asks its partner for a response. This happens at the end of each batch and, when a channel is idle during heartbeating.

2. If this indicator shows that round trips are taking longer than expected, use other network monitoring tools to investigate the performance of your network.
