Collection Services data files: QAPMSYSPRC

Physical processors are actual hardware processors contained within the physical system. The utilization for a system's physical processor is the time that the processor was made available by the hypervisor to any partition for it to do work. Dedicated processors will appear to be 100% utilized as the hypervisor is not in control of how the partition is using the processor.

Physical processor 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).

A POWER6® system with firmware level xx340_075 or later is required for this data to be available.

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. Logically this is the time at the end of the interval.	C (12)
DTECEN	Century digit.	C (1)
INTSEC	Elapsed interval seconds. The number of seconds since the last sample interval.	B (4, 0)
SPPID	Processor identifier. Unique identifier for each processor.	H(2)
SPTYPE	Type of processor: '1 = Physical processor	C (1)
SPATTR1	Processor state: '1' = not installed '2' = Guarded off (This processor has some runtime recoverable errors or it has been check stopped). '3' = Unlicensed (This processor is installed, but the license has not been purchased). '4' = Shared '5' = Borrowed (If this processor is not assigned to any partition, it has been taken from a dedicated partition that is set to donate its unused processors). '6' = Dedicated	C (1)
SPATTR2	Owning partition ID of the partition that owns this processor. If the processor is shared or unowned, a minus 1 will be reported.	B (4, 0)
SPTIME	Processing time. The time (in milliseconds) that this processor was dispatched to some partition.	B (18, 0)
SPVAL01-SPVAL10	Reserved for future use.	B (18, 0)
SPCHIPID	Chip identifier. The unique value among all hardware chips in the system, which identifies the specific hardware chip on which this processor resides.	BINCHAR (4)
SPMODUID	Module identifier. The unique value among all hardware modules in the system, which identifies the specific hardware module on which the chip that contains this processor resides.	BINCHAR (4)
SPAFNDMNP	Primary affinity domain identifier. Within the most significant affinity domain in the system, this is the unique value which identifies the specific affinity domain which contains this processor.	BINCHAR (4)
SPAFNDMNS	Secondary affinity domain identifier. Within the second most significant affinity domain in the system, this is the unique value which identifies the specific affinity domain which contains this processor.	BINCHAR (4)
SPLPIDX	Logical processor index. The unique value among all processors installed on the system by which the hypervisor identifies this processor.	B (4,0)
