RATE Option-Convert Counts to Rates

Use the RATE option to plot a rate (number per second) rather than a count.

Example: Plot a Rate

The following commands plot the usage rate for transaction PSPI against the total transaction rate:

PLOT TRAN USE RATE TRANID(PSPI) CHAR1(P) CHAR2(+)
  FROM 12/07/08 01:00:00
  TO   12/07/08 09:00:00
  EACH HOUR
END
RUN

A report like the following is generated:
