This job is (was)  part of Performance Monitor, which was replaced by
Collection Services.
On V5R1 this job is not doing anything and, in fact, it should not be
there. You can delete this autostart entry.

I feel better - I KNEW there was a way to do this ON the iSeries. There are
Management Central APIs, documented on the Performance topic in InfoCenter.
These will start, cycle, and stop Colleciton Services. CRTPFRDTA can be
used against the data generated. It's not made too easy, however.

The thing I'm interested in is the sites that don't have Performance Tools.
Of course, I'm not supposed to WANT to work on the green screen anymore, am
I?
