    related to the usage of FCP devices (subchannels) and CHPIDs
    (physical channels) for EDEVICE activity.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

  • The new Monitor records can be used to determine if the
    existing EDEVICE configuration is optimal or could be
    changed for better performance.
    
    The new Monitor records have been included in the z/VM
    Performance manual, Release 6.4, SC24-6208-11 in Appendix C.
