Comments
This APAR provides new and updated performance reports in Performance Toolkit for z/VM. The new reports provide Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) metrics and user processor time metrics for z/VM systems with SMT enabled. The following are new reports/commands: - FCX331 MTCTYPLG (SMT Metrics Per Core Type Log) - Shows SMT data for each core type. - FCX332 MTCORELG (SMT Metrics Per Core Log) - Shows SMT data for each core. - FCX333 USRPRCTM (User Processor Time) - Shows calculated raw time, MT1-equivalent time, and prorated core time for each user with activity on virtual IFL processors. - FCX334 USRTMLOG (User Processor Time Log) - Shows a "by time" log of a benchmarked user's processor time on virtual IFL processors. The following reports/commands are modified: - FCX124 MENU - New entry to select User Processor Time (USRPRCTM) - FCX154 SYSSET - Removed the multithreading line and multithreading settings table. - FCX180 SYSCONF - Added the multithreading settings table. - Added "SMT Configuration change" indications to the "Changed System Status" section of the report. - FCX234 PROCCONF - Changed headers to reference Physical Cores. - Changed heading from "Second Level Configuration" to "Virtual Configuration". - FCX236 PROCMENU - Changed the description on the PROCCONF selection. - FCX325 CPUMENU - New entries to select SMT Metrics Per Core Log (MTCORELG) and SMT Metrics Per Core Type Log (MTCTYPLG). The "z/VM: Performance Toolkit Guide" (SC24-6302-03-03), the "z/VM: Performance Toolkit Reference" (SC24-6303-03), and the HELP files for the functions listed above are updated for the new support.
