J.10.10 Performance Management Collection and Parsing Problems
PM collection is done on the entire node and statistics files are uploaded from all applicable cards on
that node.
The Stats Parser parses these statistics files and stores the stats data in the database.

J.10.10.1.1 pmcollector—Generic Troubleshooting
When performing generic troubleshooting, always do the following:
•Verify that the pmcollector process is running by executing the psg pmcollector command and
checking for a result.
•Make sure the stats files are in the /opt/svplus/purge directory of CTM. Check for all stats files; there
should not be any missing file, and there should be no files accumulated in the /opt/svplus/spool
directory.
•Check the file_err_log table for any file collection failure.
