Setting up the APPLDATA record support

6.10 z/VM guest

You must enable your z/VM® guest virtual machine for data gathering. You must also load any components of the APPLDATA record support that were compiled as separate modules.

Procedure

  1. On z/VM, ensure that the user directory of the guest virtual machine includes the option APPLMON.
  2. On Linux®, use the modprobe command to load any required modules that were not compiled into the kernel.
