Performance Toolkit for VMTM has introduced a set of
formatted output collectors. These collectors place processed report
data from Performance Toolkit into a Discontiguous Shared Segment
(DCSS). The FC MONCOLL SEGOUT controls the enablement of and
population of this DCSS.
NEW!

must apply one of the above PTFs to your z/VM system.
APAR VM64299 is available for both the z/VM 5.2.0 and z/VM
5.3 editions of Performance Toolkit as follows
- PTF UM32170 for z/VM 5.3 provides the update for normalizing

The new PERFOUT DCSS contains all the data provided by the
formatted output collector code. The format of this data is documented
at the following:
Before you install the Performance Toolkit code,
please read through all the instructions.
Before you install the Performance Toolkit code:
- You must have a valid product license for Performance Toolkit for
VM. You must also have ordered and installed the PTF which applies to
your z/VM level. See above.
- You need to be able to LOGON to the Performance Toolkit virtual
machine on your z/VM system.
Refer to the Program Directory for Performance Toolkit for your
z/VM release and follow the instructions for Servicing Performance
Toolkit for VM in Chapter 7. The Program Directories are
