• Work around added for overflow error on Mac OS when trying to chart graphs on several
sheet like DISK_SUMM. Appears to be a bug with Excel on Mac OS only.
• On Mac OS the graphs were drawn too wide, made a change so by default they are drawn to
consume a more reasonable amount of space similar to how it is done on Windows.
• Fixed graph titles/descriptions for DISKAVGRIO, DISKAVGWIO: they were wrong per AIX
documentation here:

• Fixed an issue where the DISK_SUMM metrics were wrong if more than 150 disks existed in
the data.

• When running on MAC, showing progress during the run is much faster now. The
SHOWMACPROGRESS option now defaults to YES. Note: Using SHOWMACPROGRESS =
YES will slow execution somewhat (maybe 30-50% slower) but the benefit is you will clearly know
that the process is not "hung".
• On MACs, fixed batch processing of multiple files related to use of : instead / for subdirectories.
• On Macs, fixed issues relating to merging of multiple files because of usage of : instead of /
New in V5.2.2
• When using the merge function its possible the filename generated may incorrectly contain a :
colon causing the analyzer to fail.
New in V5.2.1
• Tested on Excel 2016: Please note you may experience the following issue “texttocolumns
method of range class failed” a possible work around:
“I installed Excel 2016 on my mac. I open excel , enable macros run the latest analyzer. It fails with
“texttocolumns method of range class failed”. Then i see in the background that the Sheet2 has no data
in column A, i.e. data didn't get copied into Excel from the .nmon file. I put in a 1 into first cell of column
A (could add any data really to avoid the error) and hit the button to continue. Then it fails like it should
saying "no valid nmon data".
I shut down Excel and I came back in again later rerun the analyzer and I did not get the problem it
seemed like a 1 time thing, it ran through it successfully. Tested it a few more times, it doesn’t happen
anymore. Uncertain what caused this to fail the 1
st
time but FYI“
