Yes, SAS is a pre-req for MXG. Have you looked at the RMF Spreadsheet Reporter?
It's a bit high-level for what I think you need, but the "process" of acquiring the data, getting it into the spreadsheets and preparing the charts may give you some insight on how to take a left turn at Albuquerque and perhaps roll your own to get the info you need. Earlier, I think I read a post by another forum member to look at DFSORT to produce something. That is a very good idea. Gary Green I can use all the help I can get with my fight against cancer!

We don't have SAS, and isn't that an MXG requirement? Thanks, Jon <snip> When I've had to determine what job(s) have caused a large CPU increase over an interval I've used the SMF type 30 interval records. If you have Barry Merrill's MXG the information from them is in the SMFINTRV dataset. By using them you can limit the analysis to a short interval rather than over the full time of the job. Of course if you talking about several days of data it would be a lot of information. </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html No virus found in this incoming message.
