Collection Services has the ability to collect certain high-level cross-partition processor performance metrics for all logical partitions on the same single physical server regardless of operating system.  When this data is available, it can be viewed via several Performance Data Investigator (PDI) perspectives found under "Physical System".

An HMC option to enable performance collection must be turned on for the IBM i partition to collect the data.

HMC panel

Choose Advanced and then select collection option

  1. Select Advanced on the top right of the HMC panel for any partition.
  2. Select Enable Performance Information Collection
  3. Save this change.  You will now be able to collection performance data for the entire physical server.
