[snip] Yogs : we're not XE yet but I don't expect much difference. Reports! (or lack thereof) - TMon: fully selectable & customizable reports of the fields & order you desire. I would *almost* compare them to FDReport. OmegaMon: canned only with limited selection capability. For example, we can't get the userId in the DB2 deadlock/time-outs report; only the correlation-id ie. CicsId-TransId, which is *no* help. We know there was a deadlock/time-out at x-time with y-table between DDF & Cics but who? No idea. User-collectable data - TMon: provides an interface for collecting user specified data associated with each Cics transaction. Using the SAG exit, I was able to track each Natural object and provide an internal transaction trace. Using the reporting facility, I was able to list all the objects used with their CPU & elapsed times on a daily/weekly/monthly/annual basis. I even provided a continual, "top- 10 worst performers this year" to the applications group. OmegaMon: none/*very* minimal. Ok, there *is* something for Adabas but we use DB2. We only see that the Natural nucleus was invoked (150k-220k times daily) as the transaction program. Our switch was $$ driven and, in my _personal_ opinion, we got what we paid for. ----------> signature = 6 lines follows <-------------- Neil Duffee, Joe SysProg, U d'Ottawa, Ottawa, Ont, Canada telephone:1 613 562 5800 x4585 fax:1 613 562 5161 mailto:NDuffee of uOttawa.ca http:/ /aix1.uottawa.ca/ ~nduffee "How *do* you plan for something like that?"
