Hi, Ed.
There should be two, predefined directory entries in the z/VM 5.2 USER
DIRECT file for the Performance Toolkit. One should look like this:
USER PERFSVM password 64M 512M ABDEG
MACHINE XA
XAUTOLOG AUTOLOG1
ACCOUNT xxxx
NAMESAVE MONDCSS
IUCV *MONITOR MSGLIMIT 255
IUCV *IDENT FCXRES00 GLOBAL
IUCV *IDENT FCXSYSTM GLOBAL
IUCV ALLOW
SHARE ABS 3%
IPL CMS PARM FILEPOOL VMSYS
OPTION QUICKDSP
CONSOLE 0009 3215
SPOOL 000C 2540 READER *
SPOOL 000D 2540 PUNCH A
SPOOL 000E 1403 A
LINK MAINT 190 190 RR
LINK MAINT 19D 19D RR
LINK MAINT 19E 19E RR
*LINK 5VMPTK20 200 200 RR
*LINK 5VMPTK20 201 201 RR
*LINK 5VMPTK20 1CC 1CC RR
*LINK 5VMPTK20 29D 29D RR
*
and the other should look like this:
USER 5VMPTK20 password 32M 32M EG
MACHINE XA
ACCOUNT xxxx
IPL CMS PARM AUTOCR FILEPOOL VMSYS
CONSOLE 0009 3215
SPOOL 000C 2540 READER *
SPOOL 000D 2540 PUNCH A
SPOOL 000E 1403 A
LINK MAINT 190 190 RR
LINK MAINT 19D 19D RR
LINK MAINT 19E 19E RR
LINK MAINT 5E5 5E5 RR
LINK MAINT 51D 51D MR
The PERFSVM user id runs the actual performance toolkit application, and
the 5VMPTK20 user id is the install id. If you installed the PerfKit
onto minidisks (instead of taking the SFS install option), then the LINK
statements above in the PERFSVM user entry will not be commented out.
If you don't have directory entries like these two above, then
something is wrong somewhere....
No, TRACK is not similar to PerfKit. TRACK can display the status of a
running virtual machine and allow you to see what is being done by that
virtual machine, but it provides no performance data at all.
You do need TRACK, but you also need a performance monitor product, such
as PerfKit.
Hope this helps.

Hi
We are looking at PTK shipped with z/VM 5.2.
Questions please:
1) Quick setup reference and Prog Dir for PTK 520 refer to User PERFSVM
and we only have PERFORM. Should we change user direct - user PERFORM
to be PERFSVM ? Seems like PERFSVM is imbedded in FCONX $PROFILE and
FCONRMT AUTORIZ.
2) Is TRACK similar to PTK ?
Thanks.
