RMF Spreadsheet Reporter
Hi folks I tried using RMF Spreadsheet Reporter today after having not used it for a month or two, and it's hanging on the FTP connection. This used to work before, so I can't understand what's going on. I have four LPARs I can connect to, all with exactly the same results. I know that at least two of the LPARs have not had any configuration changes whatsoever since last July. The FTP log shows: 220-FTPD1 IBM FTP CS V1R4 at NODE, 16:32:44 on 2005-12-14. 220 Connection will close if idle for more than 15 minutes. SENT: USER BRIAN 331 Send password please. SENT: PASS 230 BRIAN is logged on. Working directory is "BRIAN.". SENT: SYST 215 MVS is the operating system of this server. FTP Server is running on z/OS. SENT: PWD 257 "'BRIAN.'" is working directory. SENT: PORT 192,168,2,1,6,190 200 Port request OK. SENT: LIST java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out The read time out message is then repeated every 10 seconds or so until I cancel. It seems to be the LIST command, but I can't understand why this is being issued, where from, or why it wasn't issued/failing when I last used this. Anyone got any ideas? Anyone seen this before?

RMF Spreadsheet Reporter
Hello, I'm trying to get the RMF Spreadsheet reporter working and I am quite stumped. This is on Windows XP, Excel 2003. I have downloaded and installed the latest version of the reporter. It starts up OK, I define my SMF dump datasets. I Select Create->Workingset. The job runs successfully. The workingset shows up in the working sets folder on the local side. Then I select an excel spreadsheet to open. In the spreadsheet, click the button to 'Select Working Set and process Data...'.Then I get an error message box stating: 'No Working Set selected or no Working Set available'. Does anybody have any ideas what might be going on here? I can see the working sets in the correct directory, but I can't convince Excel that they are there...

RMF Spreadsheet Reporter
I am trying to run the RMF Spreadsheet Reporter for the first time in a while. I started by installing version 5.2.7 to my PC. I then defined a system and an SMF dataset. Then I'm trying to user the product to submit a job from my workstation to the mainframe. The job gets to the mainframe OK. However, there is no step in the job to sort the input SMF data even though there is one in the skeleton JCL in C:/Program Files/RMF/RMF Spreadsheet Reporter/Connect/RMFPP1.JCL on my workstation. Has anyone else run into a problem with RMF Spreadsheet Reporter dropping the sort step when it sends the job to the mainframe? Does anyone know what I might need to do to get the sort step included? Without it the RMF Post Processor just prints the message "ERB478I PPS: SMF RECORDS NOT SORTED" and terminates, so I get no reports, and then I get an error at the workstation end.

The PORT command indicates that the FTP client (192.168.2.1) is waiting for a connection *from* the FTP server. This connection will be used to send the results of the LIST command back to the FTP client. Most likely, some sort of firewall on your workstation (or perhaps somewhere upstream of your workstation) is blocking inbound counnections into your workstation.

Re: RMF Spreadsheet Reporter
Hello Does it time out the same number of minutes eg. 10 minutes. Your message is exactly the message I had gotten earlier this year. "java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out" I had a similar problem when retrieving large amounts of SMF records which caused the submitting job to run longer than 10 minutes. I needed to increase the FTP timeout interval from the default of 10 minutes. The default parameter coded below is the default, which may time you out after 10 minutes. JESPUTGETTO 600 Increasing this value should get you working.

Re: RMF Spreadsheet Reporter
You know what, this is exactly why I love all you guys.. (and gals!) You've all given me loads of avenues to explore there that I hadn't thought of (because I just automatically assumed that I was at fault) in particular I like the McAfee policy update suggestion, because on Monday I had problems doing command-line FTP client connections to absolutely The Whole World, which 'they' (The Network Powers That Be Who Are A Law Unto Themselves) told me was due to a McAfee policy roll-out blocking port 21.. However that got fixed and I can 'native' FTP now. I'm surprised to see that 192.168.2.1 address in there - that is NOT my workstation, that is some 172.17.xxx.xxx address. So where has that 192 one come from? Is McAfee routing it through some sort of proxy, I wonder? Time for a chat with The Network Boys in the morning (it's 11:30pm here in the 51st State at the moment), I suspect though, I think I *know* how the conversation is going to go.. something along the lines of "..Changed? No, nothing's changed.. ..Nah, nothing we would do would affect you in *that* way.." etc Thanks again folks for all the pointers and suggestions of which way to go. At least I know I'm not going mad.

Re: RMF Spreadsheet Reporter
hi Michael, I have questions, in one of our shops, client limits FTP, or because we connect to the host via sine(ie. Aventail),thus we can not submit batch job from PC(RMF Spreadsheet reporter). Q1: So I copy the JCL to the host and submit manually, then download the "listing" file from host via ISPF.6. However, when I try to create working set from the this "listing" file, it comes up error saying " report options are not setting..can not process "the listing file path..." what's wrong? Q2: Can you share some sample control statements, if I want to produce workload CPU usage chart, by service class. Is this controlled in the overview file you specify in "SYSTEM OPTIONS" ? many thanks..!

Re: RMF Spreadsheet Reporter
Cobe, Your upload/download process should work OK as far as I know. The FTP is just a transport mechanism in this case. To assist in defining the Overview Control Statements, look at the HELP tab in the Workload Overview Report spreadsheet. There is a button that opens the Create Overview Control Statements Spreadsheet to define Workload Overview Records. Also, in the DEFINE tab, you can rename the workload names to something more descriptive. >From the Help for RMF Spreadsheet Reporter: Collect:When you create remote Report Listings or Overview Records, a Postprocessor job is generated and submitted on the host system. Download:When you create local Report Listings or Overview Records, the download of the remote Postprocessor output is performed in addition to the Collect task. Generate:When you generate a Working Set from Report Listings or Overview Records, the extraction and conversion of the relevant data is performed . Display:When you start a spreadsheet macro, you need to feed this macro with a selected Working Set to get the graphical display of the contained performance measurements. I understand there is a way to create the working sets from report listings, but I've never used that process. It sounds like you're doing the Collect and Download steps ok. Are you doing the Generate step also? Attached: Workload Trend.txt - Sample JCL and overview control statements I use to create yearly trending charts. This job creates the overview record file which I then use as input to generate the working set file.
