Loading the module

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS z/VM guest

You can configure the monitor stream application device driver when you load the device driver module, monwriter.

Figure 1. Monitor stream application device driver module parameter syntax

1  modprobe  monwriter
2.1!  max_bufs=255
2.1  max_bufs=<numbufs>

where <numbufs> is the maximum number of monitor sample and configuration data buffers that can exist in the Linux® guest at one time. The default is 255.

Example

If you have compiled the monitor stream application device driver as a separate module, you must load it before you can work with it. To load the monwriter module and set the maximum number of buffers to 400, use the following command: 
# modprobe monwriter max_bufs=400
