2 things that pop up in mind: - will it run on zIIP, so it will reduce SMF processing costs? - what can I use it for? Will its functionality be comparable to MXG?
Kees. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Andrew Rowley Sent: 10 November, 2014 9:57 To: [email protected] Subject: Processing SMF using Java - new product I have been working on a Java API for processing SMF data, based on experience gained developing EasySMF. Some key features are: * Methods convert the different SMF fields to Java datatypes. * Times representing a duration e.g. CPU time, connect time are converted to floating point values expressed in seconds from the multitude of different units that you find in SMF. * Dates and times of day are converted to Joda-Time <http://www.joda.org/joda-time/> classes, which makes manipulation of time zones etc. possible. * SMF record classes provide functions to return the SMF subsections. For testing purposes it currently covers type 30 and most RMF records. This will become a new product from Black Hill Software. I am looking for people interested in trying it out and making comments on usability, performance, any problems etc. You can read details, see some sample programs and download the current beta here: http://www.blackhillsoftware.com/news/2014/11/04/processing-smf-using-java/ Please feel free to download it and try it, or sign up to the mailing list if you want to receive updates about the progress. I welcome any feedback and comments either directly, or in the comments area of the website.
