Title: performance question

Tom, although I couldn't open the stuff you tried to provide in your append, the data you sent me by separate mail gave me the required information to tell what's wrong:   - Your RESET specifications are fine. This is evidenced by the report headers   From 2006/04/25 00:14:00     To   2006/04/26 00:00:00      For  85560 Secs 23:46:00   i.e. you really get averages for the whole day, as expected. (I assume that the   late start time in the example was due to PerfKit being activated only at 00:14.)   - I assume that when you wrote '.. all my reports start at 12:01:00 ..' you referred   to the 'by time' logs you printed. Their headers tell you that the averages shown   are also for the whole day, so they're based on the correct reset time, but the   detail lines start only with the sample period ending at 12:01.   This is working as designed: What you see is the effect of a documented restriction   that only allows PerfKit to hold a maximum of 720 detail lines in its 'by time' log   buffers, so when the chosen granularity for the logs is 1 minute you'll only see   the detail lines for the last 12 hours (see description of the 'FC MONCOLL REDISP'   command).   To see detail lines for the whole 24 hours change the 'by time' interval to 2 minutes   (FC SET BYTIME 2), or to any other higher value. If you always want to print   logs for the whole day then I'd suggest to set the BYTIME interval to 10 or 15   minutes. That way the output size is reduced to something more easily manageable.   Eginhard Jaeger   ----- Original Message ----- From: Huegel, Thomas To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Sent: Wednesday, April 26, 2006 3:42 PM Subject: Re: performance question I tried this in my $profile..   I get this display.     My report heading looks like this.   BUT my reports still start at 12:00:00 and end at 23:59:00..   Any ideas what I may have wrong???   Thank you.

Entering the command without further arguments will tell you what your current settings are, and my guess is you have defined a reset at noon. Note that each automated 'print' request (i.e. P-suffix after the time) will automatically   reset the corresponding counters, i.e. it will become the start of a new reporting period unless it is superseded by a later explicit 'hh:mm:ssR_P' reset specification.   For automatic resetting at 00:01 and printing of reports at 23:59 you'd need just the statement 'FC MONCOLL RESET 00:01:00R_P 23:59:00P'   Eginhard Jaeger << ella for Spam Control >> has removed 3853 VSE-List messages and set aside 2172 VM-List for me You can use it too - and it's FREE!  www.ellaforspam.com
