CAUTION:
• If you upgrade the Device Manager agent from version 6.3 or earlier to version 6.4 or
later, the settings in the perf_cmddev.properties file remain unchanged. If you
are using a storage system in an SLPR environment, after the upgrade installation finishes,
refresh the information of SLPR command devices defined in the perf_cmddev.prop-
erties file.
• If you are using the Device Manager agent version 6.3 or earlier and you want to use
a storage system in an SLPR environment, directly edit the perf_cmddev.properties
file to define command devices for SLPRs.

Installation and Configuration Guide
Preparing the Device Manager server to acquire performance information
On the Device Manager server, in the server.properties file, set the server.cim.agent
property to the host name of the host that collects performance information (the host on which the
Device Manager agent is installed).
CAUTION:
Make sure that the host name specified for the server.cim.agent property matches the host name
registered in Device Manager for the host that acquires performance information. If these host names
are different, you cannot acquire performance information.
