Well hopefully you have collection services running (as part of PM iSeries)
if nothing else...

If you have the performance tools licpgm, you may be able to see something
via the iNav plug-in.

Assuming you have IBM support, you may want to just open a PMR and let them
dig into it.

Or perhaps you have MPG's tools...

And if not, consider downloading a trial copy. You get full features for
30(?) days, which may be enough to dig into your issue (again assuming you
had collection services already running). IIRC correct the tooling is
pretty reasonably priced. After that, you get a free basic subset of
functionality that's kind of useful. More useful is the automated
consolidation of collected data.

As a last resort, you can query the collection service data tables directly
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/rzahx/rzahxperfdatafiles1.htm

Google for example queries...but be warned it's not for the novice. :)

Hi Folks, for about 10 mins today our i went into slowdown mode with CPU
in the high 90% (which is fairly frequently from time to time) and our MQ
jobs went into MTXW and some applications were stalled or hung, our
legasuite app for one. No interactive sessions were knocked off or ended
and no errors for controllers were shown on qsysopr during this 10 min
period. Qsysopr shows only a few jobs running during the 10 min period and
those jobs are rountinely run during the day.

As the network folks wonder what's wrong with the i and my boss too...I
say the issue may be the network and I'm not totally sure about that but
this type of issue has happened b4 where the i is slow then all of a sudden
we're back to normal.

Is there anything that I can do to prove that the issue was not on the i?

Is there anything in the performance reports that could help me figure out
what happened?

What's the strategy that you folks would employ in this situation?

Thanks, Frank
