Or you could look at the Redbooks. The additional files from REDP3818 has a sample for a monwrite machine that filters records. In this case CPU usage records. Kris, isn't TSLAMON avalable on the VM download packages? Regards, Berry. Kris Buelens schreef: Here some code from y TSLAMON EXEC

According to "help HCPLNM1151E" your LNX000 DASD volume is not a 3390-9. I would guess that it is a 3390-3. You may want to ATTACH the device ucb for LNX000 to yourself then do DEVTYPE ucb. -Original Message- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Vikes

Because as someone pointed out before (Barton, I think), for performance monitoring, you want more event data and for capacity planning you need appropriate sample data. I think PerfTK could deal with more data than it needs for online real-time performance monitoring, while another process select

Maybe this is where we need a NEW utility program, since MONWRITE is doin g exactly the job it was written for (copying ALL monitor data to disk/tape ?).

Hi Stefan, In response to your statement, * the old file is read by a rexx procedure and only a subset of the monitoring records are selected from it building a new file (about 10% of the original size), this reduced file is then send to z/OS by ftp for reporting. I'd be interested in
