The account contains an RSX-11M/M+ activity monitor. When running, it
keeps track of time spent in each task as well as the exec. It counts
directives and gathers I/O statistics. The MONITOR.HLP file explains this
in greater detail. A sample run of the monitor program is contained in the
MONITOR.RPT file.
I originally got these programs from a friend of mine. We tried it and
liked it so here it is for the rest of the DECUS community. Please note
that it was written for V3.2 of RSX-11M. It usually works quite well
there. I have tried it on V4.0 and V4.1 but have never had the time to
update it for those execs (we do not have M+ so I can't speak for it).
I am submitting it now because I simply don't have the time anymore to
bring it up the the V4.1 rev level. I had planned to submit it when V4
came out. Seeing as that didn't make it, I thought for sure on V4.1.
Well, we are now moving into the VAX world which means there is no way I'll
ever have the time to work it. I am hoping that there are those of
you who would have the time to bring it up to snuff. If any of you would
like to work on it, I'd be happy to coordinate the efforts.
In order to use the activity monitor, type @MONITOR. It will assemble and
taskbuild the routines for you. To run it, type @STARTMON. To stop it,
type STM. The MONITOR.HLP tells how to run it. There is also decent
documentation within the code itself. Note that you might want to put the
task images under [1,54] after you are sure that it isn't doing nasty
things to your beautiful exec.
And by the way, I can't be responsible for these programs possibly
corrupting your system. They should be used with care and you should
experiment with them a bit before you blindly go ahead and use them.
