There are two OS agents available which (XorMon v2.3.x) provide the same data set.
LPAR2RRD agent: is written in Perl and starts from crontab every minute.
XorMon agent: is written in GO, compiled and running as a daemon when collecting data also every minute.

XorMon agent
The XorMon agent is much more effective in data collection, particularly in passing data to the XorMon server.
It is designed for environments with 10,000+ agents.
Data handling on the XorMon server is much faster and uses fewer resources.
The XorMon agent will be significantly enhanced with new features in the near future.
