Have a look at these programs, which we've used to extract columns of interest from plot files, as well as perform sum reduction, renormalization, and other relevant analyses. We use these to generate data sets for gnuplot plotting. http://download.scalableinformatics.com/collectl/ The Makefile sort of explains how to use the scripts. Basically we put all the rw.gz output into a directory, and the Makefile drives the analysis for us. Getcols.pl extracts the columns. Sumcols.pl does the post analysis. DSK-IO.pl generates the gnuplot file on the fly, and then runs gnuplot. > > Thanks! > > Jeff > > P.S.
