I've got simple understanding about xmtopas and xmservd.
Can somebody point me to a link, where these are explained in detail.
I checked it out and did not really find much info about it so I can only tell what I know from working with them.
xmquery is a service for the xmtopas demon you can, if installed, enable in your /etc/inetd.conf so that you can query cross-partition peformance information with
topas -C
Don't forget a
refresh -s inetd
if you do so.
If I remember correct, you had to enable a checkbox in all partizipating LPARs which sounded like "Share performance information" on the Hardware slider of an LPAR (processor & memory).
Issuing topas -C should show all participating LPARs.
Can't tell you anything about xmservd, sorry.
Is there anything special you'd like to know?
