Improve zVM component to track zVM Memory Usage

Today we have both IzPCA components for the zVM Installed (VMACCT and VMPRF).

Anyway, the tables included in these components does not provide fields to track zVM memory usage, trends or bottlenecks.

Please add fields to the tables in the zVM components to track the zVM memory usage, this would positively affect Performance and Capacity activities.

    Hello Pedro

    We reviewed the request and determined that this is currently not aligned with the direction of the product, so we would not be taking this up at the moment. Thank you for interest and suggestion.

    Hello Ranjana ! Currently the IzPCA components are populated thru the Performance Toolkit logs (not SMF).

    The suggested REXX gives us an idea about one way to track the memory. It's my understand IzPCA doesn't necessarily needs to retrieve data from REXX results. Maybe it can be retrieved from other Performance Toolkit's logs reports/records . If any additional information is required, please let me know and we can setup a time frame to talk.

    Thank you !

    Thank you for the RFE. Our development team looked through this and would need some more information to understand more about this feature and the nature of the output you need captured, as this is not based on SMF records, rather the output from the REXX
