Default nmon and nmon_analyser

Hello All,

Is there a way to select on CPU MEMORY and DISK usage in NMON so when
i run nmon_analyser it only picks up those three categories instead of
10 categories?

Thanks for the help

Actually, instead of limiting the data that Nmon collects, I would
limit the data the NmonAnalzer analyzes! On the "Setting" tab of the
Nmon Analyzer spreadsheet, you can specify what you want it to
Analyzer. The default is
"SYS_SUMM,CPU_ALL,DISKBUSY,DISK_SUMM,MEMNEW,NET,PA GE,PROC,TOP". You
could just emlinate the stats you don't want to analyze.
Hope that helps.

Honestly, an interval of 60 minutes is a VERY large interval.
Typically, I use intrevals of 15 or 30 minutes at most. I'm not sure
than an interval of 60 minutes will be very accurate.

Regardless, when you start up Nmon, use the -c and -s parameters to
control the interval and number of intervals. For your example, you
would use "-s3600 -c8", which says to get a snapshot (-s) every 3600
seconds (60 minutes) and get a total of 8 snapshots (-c specifies
count).

You really need to take a look at the Nmon manual. There are too many
options to describe here - besides that it's already described in the
manual!

Hope that helps.
