I have a SQL question I have spent hours trying to figure out but I can't
seem to get it.  What I am trying to do is discover how many scratch tapes
we mount in 24 hours.  Because we are an MVS OS/390 the information is a
little harder to get.  I've tried several different ways but always get
some sort of syntax.  Below I will list my examples, maybe someone can lead
me in the right direction.
What I can do is;
tsm: SERVER>select count(*) as SCR from actlog where msgno=1340
        SCR
-----------
       1427

(I am going by the MSGNO in Actlog
Activity Log
------------
Date and Time       Message
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
05/21/2003 07:06:27 ANR1340I Scratch volume 100024 is now defined in
storage pool OFFSITE01.
What I can't figure out is how to get scratch volumes defined only within
past 24 hours

1. select count(*) as TMS from actlog where msgno=1340 and BEGIND=TODAY-1
2. select count(*) as TMS from actlog where msgno=1340 and
date_time=current_date-1
3.  select count(*) as TMS from actlog where msgno=1340 and
(dayofyear)timestamp=current_date-1
None of these work.  I am probably going about this the wrong way.  I did
try to get the info out of the Summary but couldn't get that to fly either.
1.tsm: SERVER>select count(*) as SCR from summary where activity='TAPE
MOUNT' and (current_art_time)hours<24
ANR2916E The SQL data types INTERVAL HOUR(9) and INTEGER are incompatible
for operator '<'.
Any ideas?
