Long-term overview reporting with the Postprocessor
Postprocessor reports are based on data gathered as SMF records by RMF (Monitor I, Monitor II, and Monitor III), by web servers, and by Lotus® Domino® servers.
This information unit describes the following report types:
-
Interval and Duration reports
Reports are available as single-system and sysplex reports
-
Exception report
Presents a summary of values that exceeded installation-defined thresholds.
-
Overview report
Provides an improved version of the Exception and Summary report and offers data for further processing in spreadsheet or other applications.
-
Summary report
Presents an overview of system activity.
Postprocessor reports are available as either textual reports or XML reports, or both. You can use the XML output format of a report for further processing, for example, with an XML parser.
How to work with Postprocessor XML reports in z/OS RMF Reporter User's Guide provides or navigates to all required information on how to produce and view XML reports.
