If they set up the RMF ISPF application in your environment - Most shops use a REXX/CLIST to access it.
In my shop we created RMFIII as the REXX/CLIST. However, you shop might be different. You need to have datasets that use SERBxxx allocated to your TSO Session. See if your sysprog can help. This link shows the RMF libraries that are allocated (dynamically or hard coded in the TSO Logon Proc) to your TSO Session to use the RMF Panels http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.1.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.erbb200/exec.htm Unless the libraries are allocated, you cannot use the RMF Panels. The second issue is how large are the RMF monitor VSAM Files? If they are too small, then the option will not be able to retain sufficient data to do past analysis. If you have SAS/MXG or SAS/MICS, then you can run the dasd reports for RMF.
