This section contains a PR/SM™ logical processor data block. There is one for each logical processor in each configured partition. The terms logical processor and logical CPU refer to a logical core if multithreading is enabled for the reporting interval.
Offsets | Name | Length | Format | Description | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
0 | 0 | SMF70PDT | 8 | binary | Logical processor dispatch time, in microseconds.
This is the number of microseconds that were accumulated during the
measurement interval (during which a physical CPU was assigned to
this logical CPU). When associated with partition name PHYSICAL, this field contains the accumulated number of microseconds during which a physical CPU was busy, but the time could not be attributed to a specific logical partition. This time includes the time PR/SM was controlling the physical processor (LPAR management time), as well as any other time the processor was busy for any reason such as managing coupling facility traffic. |
8 | 8 | SMF70VPA | 2 | binary | Logical processor address. |
10 | A | SMF70BPS | 2 | binary | Partition processor resource weight factor. If the value is X‘FFFF’, then the partition has been assigned dedicated processors. |
12 | C | SMF70VPF | 1 | binary | Logical processor flags
|
13 | D | SMF70POF | 1 | binary | Polarization flags
|
14 | E | SMF70CIX | 2 | binary | Index to the CPU-identification name section that contains the EBCDIC name corresponding to the CPU type of the logical processor. This field is zero if there is no information available. |
16 | 10 | SMF70EDT | 8 | binary | Logical processor effective dispatch time, in
microseconds. The number of microseconds that were accumulated during
the measurement interval (excluding LPAR management time), during
which a physical CPU was assigned to this logical CPU. When associated with partition name PHYSICAL, this field contains the accumulated number of microseconds during which a physical CPU was busy, but the time could not be attributed to a specific logical partition or to LPAR management of the physical processor. One example is time used for managing coupling facility traffic. This field is zero, if not supported by the hardware. LPAR management time is the time from SMF70PDT associated with partition name PHYSICAL minus the contents of this field. |
24 | 18 | SMF70ACS | 4 | binary | Accumulated processor actual share. To get the average processor actual share, this value has to be divided by the number of Diagnose samples (field SMF70DSA in the CPU control section). |
28 | 1C | SMF70MIS | 2 | binary | Processor minimum share. |
30 | 1E | SMF70MAS | 2 | binary | Processor maximum share. |
32 | 20 | SMF70NSI | 4 | binary | Number of samples within 10% of the specified minimum. |
36 | 24 | SMF70NSA | 4 | binary | Number of samples within 10% of the specified maximum. |
40 | 28 | SMF70ONT | 8 | binary | Logical processor online time. |
48 | 30 | SMF70WST | 8 | binary | Logical processor wait state time. SMF70WST is used only for internal purposes. |
56 | 38 | SMF70PMA | 4 | signed | Average adjustment weight for pricing management. This value may be negative. |
60 | 3C | SMF70NSW | 4 | binary | Number of diagnose samples where WLM considers to cap the set of logical CPUs of type SMF70CIX within the logical partition (see also SMF70NCA). |
64 | 40 | SMF70POW | 4 | binary | Polarization weight for the logical CPU when HiperDispatch mode is active. See bit 2 of SMF70PFL. Multiplied by a factor of 4096 for more granularity. The value may be the same or different for all shared CPUs of type SMF70CIX. This is an accumulated value. Divide by the number of Diagnose samples SMF70DSA to get average weight value for the interval. |
68 | 44 | SMF70NCA | 4 | binary | Number of diagnose samples where capping actually limited the usage of processor resources for the set of logical CPUs of type SMF70CIX within the logical partition. |
72 | 48 | SMF70HW_Cap_Limit | 4 | binary | If not zero, absolute limit on partition usage of all CPUs of the type indicated in SMF70CIX in terms of numbers of hundredth of CPUs. |
76 | 4C | 4 | Reserved. | ||
80 | 50 | SMF70MTIT | 8 | binary | Multithreading Idle Time in microseconds accumulated for all threads of a dispatched core. This field is only valid if SMF70MTID is not zero for this partition. |
