This UIC contains some files to make using System Accounting easier. The idea is for STARTUP.CMD to automatically start System Accounting whever the system is brought up, and for SHUTUP.CMD to create a command file pointing to that day's data when the system is shut up. Alternatively, STARTACC.CMD and STOPACC.CMD can be invoked. Either way, the intention it to create a file called LASTFIL.ACC for each System Accounting data file, with a command like: SRD [1,6]LASTFIL.ACC=[1,6]ACNTRN.SYS/-HD/MI/-BK/PA This assumes a fairly recent version of SRD: if you are using an older version, then you may have to modify PROCESS.CMD, which is the command file which processes the data. If there is a LASTFIL.ACC file, PROCESS.CMD will use it to pick up the proper ACNTRN.SYS file, and it's date, and use this information to process the data. If there is more than one LASTFIL.ACC file, PROCESS.CMD uses the oldest one, so you can let more than one stack up. If you wish, you can submit a batch job using PROCESS.BAT, which will invoke PROCESS.CMD, and if there is more than one LASTFIL.ACC, then submit more than one batch job, and they will be done serially. The command file SUB.CMD can automatically submit one job for each LASTFIL.ACC The idea behind all this is that SHUTUP.CMD could also submit a batch job to run the next day using PROCESS.BAT, so that the system accounting data would automatically be processed, and you would usually not have to do anything extra: it would be done automatically whenever the system is brought up or down. If there is no LASTFIL.ACC file, PROCESS.CMD will prompt you for the name and date of the desired data file. Once the data is obtained, it can be reported by Datatrieve, but we prefer to graph it on a PRO. The programs DEVICE.FTN and TASK.FTN graph Device statistics and Task statistics, respectively. They use Core Graphics, but have never been tried on anything other than a PRO-350. GRAPHIC.CMD and GRAPHBLD.CMD are used to compile and task build any fortran program which uses the graphics library on a PRO, including the two given above and the SPM program elsewhere on the tape. WARNINGS: Since System Accounting is tied to [1,6], most of these files also assume they are in [1,6]; some, but not all, will switch you there automatically, but it is best if they are kept in [1,6]. You will probably want to edit QUERY.DTR which contains the Datatrieve definitions, and specifically edit the two tables NOCHANGE_TAB and TASK_TAB to reflect the files you normally want in your reports. The Sort Specification files *.SRT are for Sort-11 V3. Files for Sort-11 V2 were placed on a previous SIG tape about a year or so ago.
