Thanks. That's a start. Boy, RMFMON has a look and feel from 1987!

Subject: Re: How display level of paging?

1) The RMFMON TSO command will have an option to look at paging rates at that 
instant in time. For anything else run batch RMF reports (with the appropriate 
options and data selection) for historical reports.

2) In 2019, I'd expect to have zero, or near zero paging rates. The local page 
datasets might show some usage, but hopefully that's a one time page out event 
with very little need to page data back in. Bad is a subjective amount. If I'm 
paging does it affect executing workload? No, who really cares? Yes, we do care.

My $.02.
