But remember, that setting is from that LPAR's point of view. In other words, if you have LPARs A,B,C and D and turn off Global Performance Data Control on LPAR D, LPARs A,B and C can still see everything - including LPAR D. It's only on LPAR D where you would have the problem. Below are descriptions of the option from the HMC, which has a nice simple explanation and the second one is from the PR/SM manual (z9 EC, but this hasn't changed): <quote> Global performance data control To indicate whether the logical partition can be used to view the processing unit activity data for all other logical partitions activated on the same CPC, select Global performance data control. ------------------------------------------------- Global Performance Data Control Authority This control limits the ability of a LP to view CP activity data for other LPs. LPs with control authority for global performance data can view CP utilization data and Input/Output Processor (IOP) busy data for all of the LPs in the configuration. Additionally, gathering of FICON channel measurements requires selection of this parameter. With the exception of an LP that is a member of a WLM Cluster, an LP without control authority for the performance data can view only the CP utilization data for that LP. Use the Customize/Delete Activation Profiles task available from the CPC Operational Customization tasks list to open a reset or image profile to enable global performance data control for an LP. The Global performance data control selection is located on the Security page for the LP. Note: An LP running a level of RMF that supports FICON requires control authority even if no FICON is installed. </quote> Cheers, Mark -- Mark Zelden - Zelden Consulting Services - z/OS, OS/390 and MVS mailto:mzel...@flash.net Mark's MVS Utilities: http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsutil.html Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
