6.8.5.2.1.3 Non z/OS LPARs

 
 Since non z/OS logical partitions do not run RMF, and thus do
 not create their own SMF type 70 subtype 1 records, they are
 not represented in the HARIPU/HARIPU files.  Therefore there
 is no way to report on what is occurring inside their
 operating systems.  Such detailed analysis can only be
 conducted using their own monitoring tools, such as z/VM
 Monitor.
 
 However their PR/SM activity is still reported in the
 HARVPA/HARLPC files, providing valuable information about the
 time logical processors were dispatched,both in regards to
 LPAR capacity and overall standard CP resources utilization.
 
 Listed below are examples for your non-z/OS LPARs analysis:
 
 o To know how much of its allocated CPU resources an LPAR
   consumed, use the following data element from the HARLPC
   file:
 
   LPCPCVPU - LPAR CP Processors Utilization
 
 o To know how much of the total capacity of the standard CP
   processors pool an LPAR consumed, use the following data
   element from the HARLPC file:
 
   LPCPCTSU - LPAR Total CP Processors Utilization
 
 o To know how many of the resources of the pool of shared
   standard CP processors were consumed by one LPAR, use the
   following data element from the HARLPC file:
 
   LPCPCSSU - LPAR Shared CP Processors Utilization
 
 
   Note:  If all processors from the standard CP pool are
   shared, LPCPCSSU is equal to LPCPCTSU.
 
   Note:  If you need to know the percent of only the online
   CP processors that are used by an LPAR, then LPCPCVPU is
   the appropriate element.  If you need to know the percent
   of all CP processors that are used by an LPAR, then
   LPCPCTSU is the appropriate element.
