  All IBM tape analysis tools are part of the Package:
  IBMTOOLS.EXE is a Self-Extracting Zip file.
  This will expand into four separate files:
    IBMJCL.BIN, IBMCNTL.BIN, IBMLOAD.BIN, and IBMDOC.BIN
  See IBMTOOLS.TXT for installation instructions.

    MOUNTMON is intended to run continuously gathering statistics on
 tape volume allocations.  It runs from an APF authorized library to
 sample the tape UCBs every 1 second (can be user modified by using
 INT=n.n seconds on the execute parm).  MOUNTMON will gather statistics
 about all tape activity in the shop: library, manual, or virtual.

    Gathered statistics are written at the end of a volume allocation to
 a specific tape drive.  The collected statistics can be written to the
 SMF log file or to a flat file.  The reporting program can handle any
 combination in input files from multiple systems.

    The monitor program should be started using a two step process so
 reports can be generated from previously collected data while the
 monitor continues to collect new data.  The JCL member, STARTMON, will
 allocate the output flat file and pass the monitor JCL to an internal
 reader for execution.

 1.  STARTMON - Allocates collection file and passes monitor job to an
                internal reader for execution.

 2.  MOUNTMON - Monitor collection job passed to the system for
                execution.  You can submit this job directly if you are
                collecting directly to the SMF log files.

 3.  MOUNTRPT - Report generator program.
