We are in the process of developing a unix accounting package. Our environment is very unique, two connection machines, many suns, an alliant, multimax and vax8800. We expect to acquire many different unix boxes in the future. Therefore we need a very portable accounting package. Of course we have to report the basics (cpu time, connect time,disk usage, ....). We don't want to re-invent the wheel. Does anyone know of or have such a package? Thanks, Don Hewitt

The version of acctcom which I posted to sources.unix about a month ago
might be readily adaptable to your situation. You could generate nice
text records and ship them to a single point for billing or tracking.
Since I haven't seen the package go by, I could mail it to you. I have
posted other things which have taken up to four months, so that's no a
really useful forum.

Has anybody put together a 'total-or-near-total accounting package' for Unix?? I'm looking for something that will do per-user accounting of CPU, disk, paper, etc. etc. ad nauseum. I have some scripts that I acquired somewhere that handle small pieces, but I'm' looking for the big picture. Something that would run under Ultrix (BSD) would be nice. If you're close to finishing, I can always thump on it till it works. Thanx.

I am modelling a UNIFY database application running on a BSD UNIX system. To model the application, I am using acctcom to select records to calculate CPU and I/O consumption for a selected hour. I am having difficulty allocating the I/O for the application across the disk devices, as the accounting statistics do not give I/O's per disk volume. Is there any way that I could more accurately allocate the I/O activity by knowing where the source code for the process with a given name is, etc?
