2382.0. "PSPA 2.2-51 and NEGVAL" by EVTAI1::LEREUIL () Tue Feb 04 1997 03:53

    
	Hi  , My customer running PSDC and PSPA 2.2-51 
	on VMS V6.1-1H2 OpenVms on Alpha1000 4/200
	and Pspaeco01 ECO KIT has been applied on this system . 
	When the customer generate a report he can retrieve this random
	error , on the random .CPD	
	
       % PSPA-W-NEGVALS, Netgative values find in DEcps data,
      The clearing of PHD accounting field will cause this. All negative
      zeroed.
    	
	    
    	the following command to generate report is

    	$ ADVISE  PERFORMANCE report PERF/NODE=ONE NODE
     	/BEGIN=xx/END=xx/out =xx

	Expected a Dump report, how can I retrieve these negatives values ?
                                                                       
	Thanks indeed in advance

PSPA-W-NEGVALS is expected on systems that run Motif.  When you login on a 
Motif session the process displaying the login box has it's accounting 
values zero'd and thus PSPA will see these new values which would/may be 
lower than they were 2 min before.  Therefore the change in usage was 
negative thus PSPA-W-NEGVALS.  The overall effect on the reported data is 
insignificant and may be ignored.

BTW this has been discussed multiple times in this conference.
