Collection Services data files: QAPMSYSCPU

This database file reports utilization for virtual processor units.

Virtual processors represent the operating system's view, within a logical partition, of the processors assigned to it. The utilization reported for virtual processors is the operating system's view of how much it has used the virtual processor.

Start of changeThis file has been replaced by the QAPMSYSVP file. Only one record will be output regardless of the number of virtual processors configured.End of change

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)
DTETIM Interval date (yymmdd) and time (hhmmss): The date and time of the sample interval. C (12)
INTSEC Elapsed interval seconds: The number of seconds since the last sample interval. PD (7,0)
DTECEN Century digit. C (1)
