Re: Re: Simple hash assignment...or is it?

It appears that you are attempting to collect protocol statistics for network adapters.

If this is the case, there are several readymade, free tools that are more suited to that task, and can perform it far more efficiently, and in "standard" manner, with oh-so-many more features.

Most of these tools involve SNMP, and if you have not seen MRTG yet, check out http://mrtg.org

Well, in my current assignment, I've been asked to do it using only AIX command line calls. Don't ask... Personally, I was going to use PTX, which is a VERY fully featured AIX Performance monitoring and reporting solution, but this is the way I was asked to do it, so this is the way it must be... I will check out the site you mentioned; thanks for the heads-up!	[reply]
