Sample Report from SMF 115 Subtype 2 Records
Showing Statistics on Buffer Pool Management

It's easy to report on SMF data!
 

SMF Spectrum Writer
We have a low-cost 4GL report writer especially for SMF files. It's called Spectrum SMF Writer.

Spectrum SMF Writer handles the difficult SMF record parsing for you automatically. You just specify which fields you want to see.

Spectrum SMF Writer also converts the arcane date and time fields and reformats them into an attractive report.

Plus Spectrum SMF Writer even exports SMF data as comma delimited files to use on your PC.

The sample SMF report below was created with Spectrum SMF Writer, the low-cost 4GL SMF report writer.

In this report, we read the SMF file and select just the type 115 subtype 2 Websphere MQ performance statistics records. (See SMF 115 record layout.) We use all of the the multiply recurring QPST (Buffer Pool Management) sections from each SMF record to show statistics for each subpool during the period just ended.

The statistics include number of buffer pools, number of stealable buffers, lowest number of stealable buffers during the period, actual number of buffer steals, number of get page old and get page new requests, count of DASD read and write ops, pages written to DASD, etc.

All of this with just a few lines of code!
Why not install a Spectrum SMF Writer trial right now and start making your own SMF reports!
