Hi Al,

Just use a phantom writing the data to a file and then import it to
Excel for graphing. You can use the following code

      PRINT SYSTEM(35)
      TOTAL.UNIVERSE = 0
      EXECUTE 'sh -c "ipcs -m|grep aceb|wc -l"' CAPTURING STUFF
      TOTAL.UNIVERSE = STUFF<1>
      TOTAL.PHANTOMS = TOTAL.UNIVERSE - SYSTEM(35)
      PRINT SYSTEM(37)
      PRINT TOTAL.PHANTOMS

This give the total universe users rather than the number of interactive
sessions. You can change the prints to writing the totals out to a file.


I use the ipcs command (this is on a unix box, it won't work on a
Windows machine) to count totals which include the phantoms as the
system(35) call only seems to count the interactive sessions or those
which take a license. 

You should be able to use a scheduler of some kind (cron on unix) to
make it run every 10-15 minutes and log the results. You can then import
it direct to Excel for further analysis.

Subject: [U2] Monitoring a count of users logged on


I need to be able to monitor the number of users logged into the server.
I
would want this to run periodically (say every 10 minutes) Monday
through
Friday, 08:00 - 15:00.  I would like the output to go to a text file for
later analysis.  The output could be as simple as Date, Time, # of Users
logged in.
 
Is this something I can do via UniAdmin?  Do I need to write a basic
program
and run it as a phantom?
 
Thanks.
