Export Tool multiple times for different periods, rather than run it one time to export the entire time
span as a single large file. For example, if you want to export statistics spanning 24 hours, run
the tool eight times to export statistics in three 3- hour increments.
The next table provides lists time estimates for exporting monitoring data files using different
operands in the group subcommand:

This estimate assumes that: 60 minutes LDEV
•
The Export Tool should save statistics about 8,192 volumes within a
24-hour period.
• The Export Tool is used eight times. Each time the Export Tool is used,
the tool obtains statistics within a 3-hour period.
This estimate assumes that: 60 minutes LU
•
The Export Tool should save statistics about 12,288 LUs within a
24-hour period.
•
The Export Tool is used eight times. Each time the Export Tool is used,
the tool obtains statistics within a 3-hour period.
NOTE:
•
The estimated time in the table is for the 1-minute interval of data collection. If the interval is
2 minutes, "a 24-hour period" in the table will be "a 48-hour period", because the interval
is proportional to the stored time.
•
The estimated time that includes the transfer time of the network might take a lot of time
depending on the transmission speed of the network.
•
To shorten the acquisition time, specify the option of the group command to narrow acquisition
objects. For details about the group command, see
(page 99) .
Termination code
If you want to use a reference to a termination code in your batch file, do the following:
•
To use such a reference in a Windows batch file, write %errorlevel% in the batch file.
•
To use such a reference in a UNIX Bourne shell script, write $? in the shell script.
•
To use such a reference in a UNIX C shell script, write $status in the shell script.
A reference to a termination code is used in the following example of a Windows batch file. If this
batch file executes and the Export Tool returns the termination code 1 or 3, the command prompt
displays a message that indicates the set subcommand fails.
java -classpath
"./lib/JSanExport.jar;./lib/JSanRmiApiEx.jar;./lib/JSanRmiServerUx.jar"
-Xmx536870912 -Dmd.command=command.txt -Dmd.logpath=log
sanproject.getmondat.RJMdMain<CR+LF> if %errorlevel%==1 echo THE SET
SUBCOMMAND FAILED<CR+LF> if %errorlevel%==3 echo THE SET SUBCOMMAND
FAILED<CR+LF> pause<CR+LF>
In the previous scripts, <CR+LF> indicates the end of a command line.
