I'm converting from RTM too and I struggle with the same problems. - "PIPE VMC PERFSVM xxx" should always start at TOP, So now I do issue a VMC PERFSVM TOP before the command I want and that helps. - There is also no indication that the VMC output is incomplete. So I issue VMC PERFSVM NEXT and compare its last line with what I previously collected. If it is the same, I'm ready. But, one also must compare the header to verify that PERFSVM is still reporting about the same period, if not: restart the whole thing. Did I overlook something, or this this "an area for improvement"? P.S. I'm still using VMPTK that comes with z/VM 4.4 Kris Buelens
