RE: [cbt-tape] Cpu Utilization

Hi George,

 

Have you taken an assessment of what tools you have as data sources already?

What z/OS release are you running?

Do you have IBM RMF or BMC CMF?

Do you have an MVS Monitor of any sort (TMONMVS, SYSVIEW, OMEGAMON, MAINVIEW)?

 

You can post process SMF type 30 data which is generated by native z/OS but my first recommendation is to do that with MXG/SAS.

To me your consideration about “all kinds of money” is not realistic if you value your time.

MXG is perhaps the best value of any software sold today!  

You only need SAS/PC on one decent x86 server to do all the reporting with MXG for a good sized set of z/OS images.

 

Take stock of what you have first.  RYO in assembler from SMF 30 is not something most folks would want to maintain for a production system.

 

The reality is CPU by job is just one small facet of performance data you normally need and many of the other pieces of information you need are not available in native z/OS without RMF.

 

Are we talking about limited use sandbox system or commercial system(s) here?
