Here¹s an EXEC I use to do initial data gathering. I had updated it but have
lost the latest copy. Anyway it¹s a start:

/* */
CP.1  = 'Q ALL'
CP.2  = 'Q CPLEVEL'
CP.3  = 'Q SRM'
CP.4  = 'Q ALLOC'
CP.5  = 'Q ALLOC PAGE'
CP.6  = 'Q ALLOC SPOOL'
CP.7  = 'Q ALLOC TDISK'
CP.8  = 'Q MDC'
CP.9  = 'Q VDISK'
CP.10 = 'Q FRAME'
CP.11 = 'IND'
CP.12 = 'IND Q'
CP.13 = 'Q VSWITCH ALL DETAILS'
CP.0  = 13 

User.1 = 'Q SHARE'
User.2 = 'Q QUICKDSP'
User.3 = 'IND USER'
User.0 = 3

'PIPE cms ERASE VM REPORT'

'PIPE (end ? name GETUSER)',
   '| cp Q N',
   '| split',
   '| strip',
   '| nfind VSM' ||,
   '| spec 1.8 1',
   '| strip',
   '| stem Name.'

do I_CP = 1 to CP.0
   'PIPE (name GETCP end ?)',
      '| cp' CP.I_CP,
      '| literal' CP.I_CP,
      '| append literal '
      '| >> VM REPORT A'
end

do I_User = 1 to User.0
   do I_Name = 1 to Name.0
       'PIPE (name GETUSER end ?)',
          '| cp' User.I_User Name.I_Name,
          '| literal' User.I_user Name.I_Name,
          '| append literal ',
          '| >> VM REPORT A'
   end
end

'PIPE (name GETSTSI)',
   '| cms EXEC STSI',
   '| literal STSI',
   '| append literal ',
   '| >> VM REPORT A'

exit
