The following example of how to automate script performance collection comes from a previous AIX site I (Rob Dearden) worked with. It has three basic scripts, as explained below. Note that I do not run these at the top of the hour, since most people schedule items near the top and bottom of the hour. I have also included a command to collect the environment variables, so this should be run on an application node by the d_<env> user.</env>
I have multiple copies of the same file with different names to take the snapshot (sqlarea_snap_0847.ksh). Each file has a timestamp in the filename to help with organization.
I run a script to schedule the snapshots through atjobs (sqlarea_hourly_submits.ksh). This can also be done via crontab or other scheduling tools. In my example, I created the ability to run a snapshot every two hours and comment out the ones I don’t want at the present time.
The third file is created by the scheduling (second) script, since it creates a file to run the DM2_SQLAREA_ANALYZE command for the appropriate snapshots (snap_analyz_${fl_dt}.ksh, where ${fl_dt} is the current date gathered by the script). This file is created at the end of the hourly submits script.
Sqlarea_snap_0847.ksh
Make one copy for each snapshot to be taken.
/cerner/mgr/<env name=””>_environment.ksh</env>
fl_dt=`date “+%Y%b%d”`
file_nm=\’snap_${environment}_${fl_dt}_0847.csv\’
$cer_exe/cclora <
dm2_sqlarea_gather ${file_nm} go
!
#echo $file_nm >> /tmp/snaplist_${fl_dt}.txt #used for testing
Exit

Please remember to check file system space if you run these scripts, since taking up too much space may create other issues. Although the data is collected and analyzed automatically, you will have to pull them from the $CCLUSERDIR manually.
