Hi Winston, >If you can get me that script that runs to get your master list of I/O >blocks, I'll redo using the ICCDRVR and awk. This should make the >execution time about 30 seconds rather than 30 minutes. Yes, it's significantly faster, but consider that ICCDRVR calls fail, if anyone is configuring that particular CP when the ICCDRVR tries to open a session on that. Also consider that an ICCDRVR run is always a configuration type of thing, while getpars and omgetimp are just reads from a secured database. Yes, I know that there is the access level READ after the OPEN command, but I just wanted to remind you. ;-) If I need regularly runnings scripts to retrieve data from the ICC database and I have a way to avoid the ICCDRVR I always do this due to the reasons mentioned above. Although it's very easy to use and gives a nicely formatted output. > Best regards - Marcello. > +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ > Marcel Sieling > Foxboro Deutschland GmbH > Systems Technologies > Heerdter Lohweg 53-55 > D-40549 Duesseldorf > Germany > > Office: +49-211-5966-171 > Fax: +49-172-50-2673077 > Mobile: +49-172-2673077 > Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit my private (german) homepage: http://www.powerslider.de > +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ > > -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- > Von: Winston Jenks [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Gesendet am: Mittwoch, 22.
