LOADAV is a program that will allow you to look at the load average
plotted as a function of time. You may look at a specific date (must be
within the last month), or you may specify a range of dates. When
specifying a range of dates, the load averages are averaged, so that the
mean load average versus time of day is displayed.
As the data that this program uses is only kept for one month, a date may
be (must be!) specified by an 1≥ integer ≥ 31. If, for example, today is
the May 17, then 16 would refer to May 16, but 18 would refer to April 18.
The complete date range format is BB:EE/S, where BB is the first date to
be displayed, and EE is the ending date. S is either "W" or "N", to cause
Weekends or Noweekends to be included in the calculations. The ending date
is optional. The switch is also optional, and is sticky. The program
starts up in Weekends included mode.
After the data is displayed, the program asks if you wish to XGP the plot.
A "YES" (or "Y") to the query will send the Data Disc buffer to the XGP.
To exit from the program, type a carriage return to the date range query.
