Folks, in an accounting project where we collect various data from all LPARs we have some LPARs that are/were IPLed with a future date. (I'm not familiar with the exact terms nor the procedure how this is accomplished, so please bear with me). From studying SMF type 70 records we know that there is a field SMF70HOF which is sometimes labelled as 'hypervisor offset' or as 'sysplex timer offset' respectively.
Since not all of our data sources are SMF data we thought that it might be nice if we could obtain the current HOF value directly from storage and add it to the processing of those data. Knowing this value would give us the opportunity to create reports that say something along the lines of 'values from date/time x in simulation of date/time y'. My #1 source of inspiration here being Mark Zelden's IPLINFO rexx program (which does not display that value as far as I could make out by having a quick look into the code and the output sample on Mark's web site). Has anybody ever successfully tried to find the Hypervisor Offset value via REXX? If so, would you mind to share this little piece of valuable code with me and all of IBM-MAIN?
