Performance Monitor PM400 on V5R4

[Tomasz Skorża <t.skorza@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Pete

I asked about arms as an example - I don't know if this is important parameter.

I'm looking for information where will be described what each parameter in PM grabh exactly means, 
and which values are good or not.

I started PM at november 2010.

5% to 10% arm utilization was in last 1,5 years.
When I'm looking at arm utilization (average) in last three days, the max arm utilization is about 
35% during night backup - it is full backup every night, and about 10% in day work.
