Yes, OMEGAMON also has the ability to monitor the 4HRA when the LPAR is soft capped.
In the SMF Type 70-1 record, the variable SMF70MSU has the defined capacity for the LPAR and SMF70VPF is a flag where one of the bits indicates the partition capping is enabled. However, I don't know if that means that you've hit the cap, or just that capping is turned on. If you run Barry Merrill's MXG code he has a couple of variables in the TYPE70 dataset (and related datasets) that help with determining if you've hit the cap. I'm sure other SMF analysis tools, such as MICS, have the same.
