Capturing PERFKIT console messages

2008-06-04 Thread CHAPLIN, JAMES (CTR)
I am trying to find a way to take a PERKIT message, capture it and email
or move the information out.

We have PERFKIT set up with FC LIMIT set to capture CPU (NORMCPU 90) and
FC PROCESS CPMsg in FCONX $PROFILE. When we get a situation of high CPU,
a message does display in the zVM console. I would like to know a way to
capture that message and send it as an email message or as a file to one
of the zLinux guests on the zVM LPAR.

Any suggestions from other shops how they (you) monitor and capture this
information.

I intercept LOGON messages and save them to a separate file. I am
including the entry in the FCONX $PROFILE that will send the LOGON
message to my VALLGN exec, and the VALLGN EXEC. Inside such an exec you
could massage the data, validate the data, add other data, build a
message and then send out an email. The MAILIT package from the IBM
Downloads website is excellent for sending out the email.
