Hi! looking through their software requirements

We provide monitoring against those linux distributions.

What in particular are you trying to monitor?

Serena, good night

For the mainframe environment, we need to work with minimum consumption, capacity and performance indicators from the SMF records: 30, 42, 64, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 78, 80, 101, 109, 110 , 113, 115, 118, 119 and 120 (including their subtypes):

Record SMF	Description IBM
30	Common address space work
42	DFSMS statistics and configuration
64	VSAM Component or Cluster Status
70	RMF Processor Activity
71	RMF Paging Activity
72	Workload Activity, Storage Data, and Serialization Delay
73	RMF Channel Path Activity
74	RMF Activity of Several Resources
75	RMF Page Data Set Activity
78	RMF Virtual Storage and I/O Queuing Activity
80	Security Product Processing
101	DB2 Accounting
109	TCP/IP Statistics
110	CICS TS for z/OS Statistics
113	Hardware capacity, reporting, and statistics
115	IBM MQ statistics
118 e 119	TCP/IP Statistics
120	WebSphere Application Server for z/OS Performance Statistics
Type	Description
DCOLLECT D	Active Data Set Record
DCOLLECT V	Volume Information
SYSLOG	SYSOUT data set provided by the job entry subsystem
