The Uptime Infrastructure Monitor agent that is installed on a logical partition of an AIX LPAR system collects the following performance metrics:
| Metric | Explanation | File on Linux | AIX System Calls in libperfstat |
|---|
| lpar_id | The unique identifier for the logical partition (LPAR). | /proc |
partitio n| partition_total |
| purr | The amount of CPU time |
that has been | used by the partition. | /proc |
partitio nentitle ment| entitlement | The CPU entitlement of the partition. | /proc |
partitio n| partition_total |
| cpus | The number of CPUs on which the LPAR can run. | /proc |
partitio n| partition_total |
| capped | Determines whether |
or not the entitlement of the LPAR is capped. If yes, then the LPAR cannot exceed its entitlement. If not, then the LPAR |
will be able to can exceed its entitlement if there are spare CPU cycles available from another CPU on the system. | /proc |
partitio n| partition_total |
| smt | Determines whether |
or not | hyperthreading is available. | /proc |
partitio nmemor y| memory_total | The total amount of memory available to the LPAR, measured in bytes. | /proc |
memor ymemor y| memory_used | The total amount of memory being used by the LPAR, measured in bytes. | /proc |
memor ypa cketstx| rx | The number of packets of data |
that have been sent | received over the network interface |
from netinte rfacepa cketsrx| tx | The number of packets of data |
that have been received | sent over the network interface |
by netinte rfaceby testx| rx | The amount of data, measured in bytes, |
that has been sent | received over the network interface |
from netinte rfaceby tesrx| tx | The amount of data, measured in bytes, |
that has been received | sent over the network interface |
by netinte rfacek bytes out| in | The amount of data, in kilobytes, |
that has been written to t otalk in| out | The amount of data, in kilobytes, |
that has been read from | written to the disk. | /proc |
