Subtype descriptions

One specific subtype is used to collect one individual CIM metric category according to the CIM data model on the affected platform. The CIM metric category, in return, is mapped to the resource models used by RMF™ XP on the supported platforms. For example, metrics from the CIM metric category AIX_ActiveMemoryExpansion are related to metrics from the ACTIVE_MEMORY_EXPANSION resource used by RMF XP for AIX® on System p®.
