Start PM eServer iSeries (Q1PSTRPM) API

The Start PM iSeries^(TM) (Q1PSTRPM) API configures IBM^(R) Performance Management for eServer iSeries to start sending performance data to IBM. This allows customers to receive periodic performance reports of their systems. See PM eServer iSeries for more information on this topic.

• The Q1PLIN line description is created through the CRTLINSDLC command or reuses the line description if it already exists.
• The Q1PCTL controller description is created through the CRTCTLAPPC command or reuses the controller description if it already exists.
