There is a native backend for z/VM, it was integrated into Hobbit some time ago. It appears that Thomas wants to consolidate the CPU, Users and Procs into one column. I took a different approach, that since there was already a procs column reported by other clients, that the information that translated best to procs on z/VM was reported there.
The concept of users and procs is somewhat blurred on z/VM, so I didn't differentiate the two. Some shops (it appears that his is one of them) have a clear demarkation of who a user is, based on their userid.

Not at all.
Here I have something like 5 or 6 Unix flavors, all are reporting under
the same cpu/disk/procs/whatever.
From the osname reported by the client, hobbitd can hand the data to the
appropriate backend (it even has different backends for a few Linux
flavor, such as RHEL3 or Debian). The idea it to put together a native
backend for your OS.
Kern, Thomas a écrit :
But then you get a column for VM-CPU, a column for MVS-CPU, a column for
W2K-CPU, a column for WinXP-CPU, a column for Solaris-CPU (not really a
linux), a column for AIX-CPU (another not really a linux) and finally a
column for CPU (for the real linux systems). Now repeat that for DISK,
MSGS, PROCS, FILES, MEMORY, PORTS, BACKUP, etc.
You need a very WIDE screen when management wants it ALL on one page.
