Chris have you had a look at the PAV analysis tool on the z/OS Unix "Tools and Toys" page ?. The graphs (from SAS) are a bit lurid, but you might be able to use the extracted data. Shane ... Chris wrote on 17/03/2010 01:37:23 AM: >I would be looking at tracking HyperPAV at the device level

Subject: Re: SMF74PSM - PAV Samples Chris, useful HyperPAV activity can be observed at the LCU level in the 78.3 records. But it sounds like you're trying to break down the HyperPAV activity to the device level. Are you using fields SMF74NUX and SMF74PSM to quantify alias assignement?

Hello Chris. I'm nor sure about what kind of information you need. Anyhow RMF info is a result of the SMF records gathered or collected during the defined interval, either if you are using WDM or post-processing. Maybe you need some information on I/O response time. About PAV we must remember th
