I Dave Ta Thank you for your suggestion. We run an hourly dcollect for storage group space analysis, and a weekly full one for other type of analysis. Unfortunately what I need is the total for a couple of HLQ, all sequential, on four specific dates. And they are spread over several storage goups. And I do agree with you. SMF might not have the answer. Regards Jack
