Sorry,
This is out of scope of this group.But I require the clarification pretty urgently.

Hi all,
From Googling, I found that the basics used for troubleshooting UNIX/AIX performance issues are commands like vmstat, iostat and sar. I believe these are generic commands regardless of what UNIX flavour is in used, only difference being is the format of the output.

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.

PMDAPMID(3) Library Functions Manual PMDAPMID(3)NAME
pmdaPMID - translate a dynamic performance metric name into a PMID
C SYNOPSIS
#include <pcp/pmapi.h>
#include <pcp/impl.h>
#include <pcp/pmda.h>
int pmdaPMID(char *name, pmID *pmid, pmdaExt *pmda);
cc ... -lpcp_pmda -lpcp
DESCRIPTION
As part of the Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) API (see PMDA(3)), pmdaPMID is the generic callback for translating a dynamic metric
name into a PMID (pmid).
Because implementing dynamic performance metrics requires specific PMDA support, and the facility is an optional component of a PMDA (most
PMDAs do not support dynamic performance metrics), pmdaPMID is a skeleton implementation that returns PM_ERR_NAME.
A PMDA that supports dynamic performance metrics will provide a private callback that replaces pmdaPMID (by assignment to version.four.pmid
of the pmdaInterface structure) and implements the translation from a dynamic performance metric name into the associated pmid.
DIAGNOSTICS
pmdaPMID returns PM_ERR_NAME if the name is not recognized or cannot be translated, else returns 0.
CAVEAT
The PMDA must be using PMDA_PROTOCOL_4 or later, as specified in the call to pmdaDSO(3) or pmdaDaemon(3).
