Collection Services data files: QAPMETHP
This database file includes the physical port Ethernet protocol statistics for active Ethernet line descriptions that are associated with an Ethernet port on a Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) adapter.
Physical port data is reported only if the collecting partition has been authorized to obtain it. This authorization is a partition configuration attribute set on the Hardware Management Console (HMC).
There will be one record per interval per port . Port resource name can be used to uniquely associate records across intervals and to join with the records containing the virtual port Ethernet protocol statistics in the QAPMETH file.
| Field Name | Description | Attribute |
|---|---|---|
| INTNUM | Interval number: The nth sample database interval based on the start time specified in the Create Performance Data (CRTPFRDTA) command. | PD (5,0) |
| DATETIME | Interval date and time: The date and time of the sample interval. | Timestamp |
| INTSEC | Elapsed interval seconds: The number of seconds since the last sample interval. | PD (7,0) |
| ETMPORT | Port resource name. | C (10) |
| ETMFTG | Frames transmitted without error. | B (18,0) |
| ETMFRG | Frames received without error. | B (18,0) |
| ETMCRE | CRC error: Checksum errors detected by the receiver. | B (9,0) |
| ETMEXR | More than 16 retries: Frame unsuccessfully transmitted due to excessive retries. | B (9,0) |
| ETMOWC | Out of window collisions: Collision occurred after slot time of channel elapsed. | B (9,0) |
| ETMALE | Alignment error: Inbound frame contained non-integer number of bytes and a CRC error. | B (9,0) |
| ETMCRL | Carrier loss: Carrier input to the chipset on the IO adapters is false during transmission. | B (9,0) |
| ETMDIF | Discarded inbound frames: Receiver discarded frame due to lack of AIF entries. | B (18,0) |
| ETMROV | Receive overruns: Receiver has lost all or part of an incoming frame due to buffer shortage. | B (9,0) |
| ETMMEE | Memory error: The chipset on the IO adapters is the bus master and did not receive ready signal within 25.6 usecs of asserting the address on the DAL** lines. | B (9,0) |
| ETMSQE | Signal quality error: Signal indicating the transmit is successfully complete did not arrive within 2 usecs of successful transmission. | B (9,0) |
| ETMM1R | More than 1 retry to transmit: Frame required more than one retry for successful transmission. | B (9,0) |
| ETM1R | Exactly one retry to transmit: Frame required 1 retry for successful transmission. | B (9,0) |
| ETMDCN | Deferred conditions: The chipset on the IO adapters deferred transmission due to busy channel. | B (9,0) |
| ETMBRV | Total MAC bytes received ok: This contains a count of bytes in frames that are successfully received. It includes bytes from received multicast and broadcast frames. This number includes everything starting from destination address up to but excluding FCS. Source address, destination address, length or type, and pad are included. | B (18,0) |
| ETMBTR | Total MAC bytes transmitted ok: Total number of bytes transmitted successfully. This number includes everything starting from destination address up to but excluding FCS. Source address, destination address, length or type, and pad are included. | B (18,0) |
| ETMTFD | Transmit frames discarded. | B (18,0) |
| ETMUPF | Unsupported protocol frames: Number of frames that were discarded because they specified an unsupported protocol. This count is included in the discarded inbound frames counter. | B (18,0) |
