Sample Report from SMF 94 Records (IFCID=1)
Showing Tape Library System Statistics

It's easy to report on SMF data!

We have a low-cost 4GL report writer especially for SMF files. It's called Spectrum SMF Writer.

Spectrum SMF Writer handles the difficult SMF record parsing for you automatically. You just specify which fields you want to see.

Spectrum SMF Writer also converts the arcane date and time fields and reformats them into an attractive report.

Plus Spectrum SMF Writer even exports SMF data as comma delimited files to use on your PC.

The sample SMF report below was created with Spectrum SMF Writer, the low-cost 4GL SMF report writer. It reads as input the SMF file and selects just the type 94 subtype 1 tape library system records. (See SMF 94 record layout.) It selects the record for the hourly statistics for 11AM and prints various statistics for that hour.

All of this with just a few simple 4GL statements!
Why not install a Spectrum SMF Writer trial right now and start making your own SMF reports!
