Re: Performance collection data out of synch

Thanks Rob

I did not seem to have the options on System i Navigator so went digging
for a command line option and found the following;

https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/IBM%20i%20Technology%20Updates/page/Rebuilding%20the%20Collection%20Table

Thought I would add this to the archive incase someone else may need it.

I used
CALL QSYS/QPMCCRBD ('*ALL ' x'00000000' 'QPFRDATA ')
and it seems to have done the job

Thanks

I recently had an issue with this on 7.3. When I looked for the
performance collections in Navigator for i I was not seeing all the
members that are in the performance collection files. (PMR 43107,082,000).
When I did GO PERFORM, 7. Display performance data I could see all the
members but not in Navigator for i.

There's an option in Navigator for i to rebuild the list. From the pmr:

<snip>
You can do this by expanding Performance on the left hand window, expand
manage collection and choose Collection Services Collections. This will
bring up all the Collection Services data collections on the system in
the right window. In some cases this table can be inaccurate due to
internal collection tables not syncing correctly. To rebuild the
collection table you can use the Actions drop down to maintain
collections and rebuild the collection table. You'll see messages
indicating this will take a few minutes to run.

After the rebuild has run, does the list of collections here match what
you see on the green screen? Are you able to see the complete list of
collections when you try the Health indicator perspectives?...

If you're downright GUI phobic I do not know what API this calls.
