Operating Systems AIX topas -P output to file Post 302343809 by zxmaus on Thursday 13th of August 2009 04:30:34 PM

Hi,

try rather topasrec or smitty performance / smitty topas ...

To start a report that runs for 5 minutes and collects metrics every 1 minute, enter the following command:

Code:
topasrec -L -c 5 -s 60

... the file will be in the directory you were in when starting the record and in the format servername_timestamp.topas ... data will be binary and you can run it through nmon analyzer or generate a report via smitty topas panel.

Code:
topas -R

collects data as well and the data is stored automatically in /etc/perf/** but as far as I know there is no possibility to define any values like count or intervals - all you get is the default - and you would need to run it as well through either topasout or nmon analyzer or the smitty panel to really have useful data ...

There was a webinar last year from the AIX virtual usergroup about topas recording - have a look into '2008-9-25_Topas_Recording.wmv' that can be found here:

ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/systems/p...l-VUG-Replays/

I hope this helps,
kind regards
zxmaus
