DATA OVERVIEW

Data types are Character, accumulating, current state, or delta values.

Character values are ebcidic, as is
Accumulating values are counters from which the delta from two intervals represents the data. These are represented in character format in this documentation.
Current state represents current status, such as SWAP USED. This will be represented as BINARY FIXED(31) in this documentation
Delta Value represents the data. All CPU values will be delta values representing the CPU used during the interval. This data is represented as Binary Float(21) in this documentation
