Error description
When running performance monitoring on a WebSphere Application
Server running on the SLES Linux platform, the free memory
reported is incorrect.
This problem was reported on a version 5.1 WebSphere Application
Server running on SLES 9.0. In this environment, free memory
was reported as a negative number (-3).
Local fix
There is no workaround.
Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: Websphere Application Server users *
* interested in monitoring performance data *
* on the linux operating system. *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: PMI reports a (-3) value for free *
* memory on a Linux platform. *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: *
****************************************************************
PMI was unable to ascertain the current free memory information
from the Linux operating system. This was due to a change in
how the operating system dispenses memory information. This
change took place during the migration of the 2.4 to 2.6 kernel.
Problem conclusion
A new parsing mechnism was implemented to pull the data in
using a format that works for all current kernal revisions.
The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion
in cumulative fixes 5.02.15 and 5.1.1.8.
