While VMRMUA is running, you will receive messages about:
- Date and time VMRMUA was run
- Command line syntax
- Utility sort program used
- Input file used (VMANAGER CMSDISKS) and date it was last updated
- Number of minidisks available for analysis
- Number of minidisks read
- Number of minidisks excluded from analysis
- Number of minidisks analyzed
- Names of reports generated
- Return code with which VMRMUA processing ended
A full set of screen messages is put in a console file named VMRMUA yymmdd, where yymmdd represents the date the utility was run.
VMRMUA then builds the minidisk utilization reports and puts them in a file named VMRMUA LISTING. Each VMRMUA report is described and a sample provided in later sections.
Requirements
To determine whether VMANAGER has sufficient virtual storage to run VMRMUA, add 1000 to the number of minidisks on your system and round up to the next thousand. The result is an estimate of the amount of virtual storage, in kilobytes, needed for running VMRMUA. For example, if your system has 2755 minidisks, you would need about 4000 KB (4 MB) of virtual storage. If the VMANAGER virtual storage is insufficient, increase the amount before proceeding.
