Unfortunately VMCX is not a CP command. It is a CMS program that uses the VMCF protocol, SEND/RECEIVE subset, that is frowned upon, and it just isn 't linux-like either. To be linux-like you need to use TCP/IP and have a ser ver on VM interface between the your linux client and the PERFTK data. Or you
could by a product that interfaces between PERFTK and linux to provide lo ts of MVS-style data. I would prefer to have a privleged linux command (VMCX) that did use the VMCF SEND/RECEIVE, and a daemon program to listen for SMSGs which are the uses of the SENDX subset of VMCF. IBM no longer ships the source for the VMCX module with PERFTK and I dele ted the RTM/SMART copy when I moved to PERFTK. /Tom Kern /301-903-2211 On Tue, 6 Nov 2007 11:26:59 -0500, Mary Anne Matyaz <[EMAIL PROTECTED] om> wrote: >My linuxes aren't enabled to connect to perfkit, but if they were, I >would think that >the following command would work: >vmcp vmcx perfsvm storage >or >mcp vmcx perfsvm user > >Mary Anne
