Just a small comment. Beware that depending on the operating system used there are (rare) cases where monitoring commands display slightly different metrics under the same label so might lead to incorrect interpretation.
In particular, what you wrote about the pi/po columns do not apply at least to Solaris vmstat with which the paging activity account disk read and writes due to normal virtual memory I/O like regular mmaped files being accessed.
On Solaris, what AIX reports as pi/po is shown under the api/apo (anonymous pages in/out) columns when the '-p' option is passed to vmstat.

Dear all,
I have a Local zone , where users feel that performance is not good.
Is it wise to collect the inputs from the local zone rather than taking from the global zone.
And also Can I tune from Global zone , so that it will reflect in local zone.
