You mean like additional Health Checker alerts that can be reviewed from SDSF?

 Hi

Thank you ,for your excellent answer
For me it would be interesting to get some notification
  for example via ENF events if is something is wrong in the system
We are in z/OS 1.13, I will try to download the latest PTF's

PFA uses Runtime Diagnostics to corroborate a "too low" condition is some of

there's an event, issues the PFA exception and includes the Runtime Diagnostics events in 
the PFA report.  This output is what you would have been seeing in the 
PFA_SMF_ARRIVAL_RATE check's report.

There has been a lot of recent work to reduce the number of exceptions from PFA.  
Therefore, I would encourage you to get all the latest PFA PTFs and to stay current on 
those. There are some additional PTFs that should be available soon in this "too 
low" checking as well.

More information on both Runtime Diagnostics and PFA as well as the integration 
between them can be found in z/OS Problem Management.

Runtime Diagnostics is a point-in-time diagnostics tool that should be used 
when you think there is something wrong on your system and don't know what it 
could be or where you should start your investigation.  It is invoked by F 
HZR,ANALYZE (starting in R13) after it has been started.  Prior to R13, it was 
invoked using its start command.

PFA uses Runtime Diagnostics to corroborate a "too low" condition is some of 
PFA's checks.  When PFA thinks a rate is too low, it invokes Runtime 
Diagnostics and if there's an event, issues the PFA exception and includes the 
Runtime Diagnostics events in the PFA report.  This output is what you would 
have been seeing in the PFA_SMF_ARRIVAL_RATE check's report.

Hi

I'm trying this.
But it is saying no event was found.

I was surprised to find an extensive CPU event in the SMF_ARRIVAL_RATE 
report, but

now I read it is so.
Still wondering why

Hi

Just started "Runtime Diagnostic" HZR address space, wondering where are

Any possibility to get notified somehow if a runtime diagnostic event
occurs ?
