        Record 16 - CPU Utilization Data in a Logical Partition
 DESCRIPTION - Utilization data (CPU/core) for an individual
               logical partition.  Also included are data
               for each logical CPU/core in the partition.
               This monitor record is PER CORE if MT is
               enabled in the partition that this record
               is reporting as indicated by the
               SYTCUP_LCXPPSMT field in this record.
 NOTES:
   -- A separate record is generated for each logical
      partition reported by the underlying hypervisor.
      However, if the HMC Global Performance Data setting
      is disabled, you will receive a record for only your
      partition.
   -- The data for a partition with a large number of
      CPUs/cores may not fit in a single record. In this
      case, the data spans a series of records.
      See descriptions of SYTCPU_CALMORE and SYTCPU_CALNREC
      below.
   -- Each of these records might make different use of the
      terms "CPU/core/thread" depending on the
      Multithreading (MT) settings of the reported
      partition (see definitions below).
   -- When a field in this record uses the term "CPU/core",
      the meaning of the field changes based on whether
      Multithreading (MT) is enabled for the partition
      whose data is being reported in the record.
      When MT is not enabled, a physical core contains
      only one CPU:
        - CPU   : central processing unit (processor).
        - CORE  : physical unit containing one CPU.
                  In this environment the core has
                  1 thread, the term "thread" is not used,
                  and the term "CPU" is generally favored
                  over the term "core".
       When MT is enabled, a physical core contains one or
       more CPUs (aka "threads"):
         - CPU   : central processing unit (processor).
                   Identified by CPU address which consists
                   of core ID and thread ID.
         - CORE  : physical unit containing one or more CPUs
                   (aka "threads"). All CPUs of a core have
                   the same CPU type.
         - THREAD: synonym for a CPU that is a member of a
                   core. Each thread on a core has a
                   distinct thread ID (TID), numbered from
                   0 up to the maximum thread ID available
                   on the core.
   -- SYTCUP_CALCPUOF and SYTCUP_CALCPULN should always be used
      to locate the SYTCUP_CPUDATA entries.  Their values may be
      subject to change.
