Coincidentally, while the discussion on SMF reporting has been going on I have been preparing to post this.
This post has been approved by Darren. I would like to announce a new product for reporting on SMF data on a PC. EasySMF runs on Windows and reports directly on SMF data. It has a built in FTP client to download data directly from SMF dump datasets, and can also read SMF data from other formats such as TSO TRANSMIT and zip files. Reports are pre-defined so no programming is required. Additional reports will be added over time, based on feedback from users. The aim is to produce a set of reports that covers the most common information that people need from SMF. EasySMF is now available for public beta testing. I would like to hear about: * Additional reports you would like included * Anything you find confusing * Errors in reports * Any other problems you encounter (Preferably directly or in the forum below rather than here) See more detail or download from: http://www.smfreports.com For a lengthier introduction: http://www.blackhillsoftware.com/blog/2009/02/02/introducing-easysmf/ There is a discussion forum at: http://www.blackhillsoftware.com/forum/easysmf The software has a 30 day evaluation period where it will work without a key. A temporary key is also available for beta testing. To receive the key please send an email to: [email protected] Regards Andrew Rowley Black Hill Software ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
