You can always monitor the operating system where hyptop is running.

To monitor any other operating system(s) _running_on_the_same_hypervisor as 
hyptop (whether z/VM or PR/SM), you will need additional permissions.

(I think underlining or italicizing the "running on the same hypervisor" will 
help even more.)

For z/VM guests, that is CP privilege class B. For systems running in an LPAR 
(PR/SM), use the HMC Customize/Delete Activation Profiles function to ensure 
the Global performance data control checkbox is checked. This can be found in 
the Image profile, under the Security heading.


Is there any verbiage that should be added for KVM guests?  I haven't tried it 
myself, but does hyptop work there?
