Greetings everyone,
I have a/an SQL Select question.

Most of my TSM Servers are at 5.5.1.0, one is at 5.5.2.0

I am trying to count the number of tapes with a percentage utilization
in brackets of 10 percent.  In other words, how many tapes with
utilization between 100 and 90, 90 and 80, and so forth.

I first tried:
select count(volume_name), pct_utilized, stgpool_name from volumes -
where (pct_utilized between 100 and 90) or (pct_utilized between 90 and
80) or (pct_utilized between 70 and 60) or (pct_utilized between 60 and
50) or (pct_utilized>50)-
group by stgpool_name, pct_utilized

Although the statement functions and returns valid data,  it is not what
I expected.  I mistakenly expected it to count all the tapes within each
given range.  What it really does is count tapes with distinct pct_util.
I might as well not have specified the ranges.  The only tapes it
counted cumulatively were of the exact same pct_util.

 Unnamed[1]     PCT_UTILIZED     STGPOOL_NAME
-----------     ------------     ------------------
          1             59.4     C_TSMSERVER_TAPE
          1             68.7     C_TSMSERVER_TAPE
          1             78.2     C_TSMSERVER_TAPE
          1             79.5     C_TSMSERVER_TAPE
          1             99.9     C_TSMSERVER_TAPE
          1            100.0     C_TSMSERVER_TAPE
          1             66.0     NASPOOL

If I select for a count for greater than or less than a particular
value, I get the kind of count I expect.  I had expected "between" to do
similar work but be less klunky.

select count(volume_name) from volumes where pct_utilized<100 and
pct_utilized>89


The other option I tried was CASE, WHEN, THEN:

select count(case when pct_utilized between 100 and 91 then 1 else 0)
from volumes
and,
select count(case when (pct_utilized between 100 and 91) then 1 else 0)
from volumes

Those failed for syntax errors.

Is there a clean way to do this?
