    And including the cron details to start the collection at midnight every night as it runs for 24 hours this makes good sense:

    0 0 * * * /tmp/nmon/nmon -fT -s 15 -c 240 -m /tmp

    Of course, /tmp is not that good a choice of directory as the contents is often removed automatically via scripts or a system administrator cleaning up.

    Thank Nigel
