This script specifies that you are logging into the SVP whose IP address is 158.214.135.57.

You must log into the SVP when using the Export Tool.

The svpip subcommand specifies the IP address of the SVP. You must include the svpip

subcommand in your command file. For detailed information about the svpip subcommand, see

svpip Subcommand

” on page 98.

login expusr passwd

This script specifies that you use the user ID expusr and the password passwd to log into the SVP.

The login subcommand logs the specified user into the SVP. You must include the login

subcommand in your command file. For detailed information about the login subcommand, see

login Subcommand

” on page 100.

Caution:

When you write the login subcommand in your command file, you must

specify a user ID that should be used exclusively for running the Export Tool. See

Requirements for Using the Export Tool

” on page 87 for reference.

show

The show subcommand checks the SVP to find the period of monitoring data stored in the SVP

and the data collection interval (that is called gathering interval in Performance Monitor), and

then outputs them to the standard output (for example, the command prompt) and the log file.

Performance Monitor collects statistics by the two types of storing periods: in short range and in

long range. The show subcommand displays the storing periods and the gathering intervals for

these two types of monitoring data.

The following is an example of information that the show subcommand outputs:

Short Range

From: 2006/10/01 01:00 -

To: 2006/10/01 15:00 Interval : 1min.

Long Range

From: 2006/09/01 00:00 -

To: 2006/10/01 15:00 Interval : 15min.

Short Range indicates the storing period and gathering interval of the monitoring data stored

in short range. Long Range indicates those of the monitoring data stored in long range. In

the above example, the monitoring data in short range is stored every 1 minute in the term of

1:00-15:00 on Oct. 1, 2006. Also, the monitoring data in long range is stored every 15 minutes

in the term of Sep. 1, 2006, 0:00 through Oct. 1, 2006, 15:00. When you run the Export Tool,

you can export monitoring data within these periods into files.

All the monitoring items are stored in short range, but a part of monitoring items is stored in both

the short range and long range. For details on monitoring items that can be stored in long range,

see

longrange Subcommand

” on page 114.

The use of the show subcommand is not mandatory, but it is recommended that you include

the show subcommand in your command file. If an error occurs when you run the Export

Tool, you might be able to find the error cause by checking the log file for information issued

by the show subcommand. For detailed information about the show subcommand, see

show Subcommand

” on page 100.

group PhyPG Long and group RemoteCopy

The group subcommand specifies the type of data that you want to export. Specify a operand

following group to define the type of data to be exported. Basically, monitoring data stored in

short range is exported. But you can direct to export monitoring data stored in long range when

you specify some of the operands.

The script group PhyPG Long in

Figure 38

on page 89 specifies to export usage statistics

about parity groups in long range. Also, the script group RemoteCopy specifies to export

statistics about remote copy operations by Continuous Access and TrueCopy for Mainframe

in short range. You can describe multiple lines of the group subcommand to export multiple

monitoring items at the same time.

For detailed information about the group subcommand, see “

group Subcommand

” on page 101.

shortrange 200610010850:200610010910 and longrange

200609301430:200610011430

The shortrange and longrange subcommands specify the term of monitoring data to be

exported. Use these subcommands when you want to narrow the export-target term within the

stored data. You can specify both the shortrange and longrange subcommands at the same

time. The difference between these subcommands is as follows:
• The

shortrange subcommand is valid for monitoring data in short range. You can use this

subcommand to narrow the export-target term for all the monitoring items you can specify by

the group subcommand.
