Yes, you can run glance in adviser mode as follows:

glance -adviser_only -syntax mysyntax -j60 > glance.out

You can replace mysyntax with any other customized syntax file (see directory /opt/perf/examples/adviser for some examples), or with the default syntax file:
/var/opt/perf/adviser.syntax

This command line will run indefinitely, so if you want it to terminate after so many iterations, try using -iterations option (see man pages for glance)
