Shannon,

Why not use the volhistory table.
This will give you your new scratch storage pool vols for previous 24 hours

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM VOLHISTORY WHERE TYPE='STGNEW' -
AND DATE_TIME>(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP-(1 DAY))

This does not give you database volumes used from scratch but the message
1340 from the activity log does not include them either, and if you use the
volume
history table you can also include TYPE='BACKUPINCR'  and  TYPE='BACKUPFULL'

Subject:  SQL Question



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?

Thanks,
