    .Export of Performance Monitoring Data is available from HMC V8 R8.6.0. The option to exclude network configuration data while taking HMC backup is delivered with HMC V8 R8.7.0.

    I do not see that option on the browser HMC V884. When was this released?

    Hi,

    The existing HMC backup/restore function provides a mechanism to take a backup excluding the network configuration & can be restored on a different HMC, which can be used to get the historical data.

    Thanks.

    Yes. If we have a disaster and have to go to our other site we would be nice to have the historical data

    Export is planned for a future release, but we are not planning for backup/restore to a different HMC. Is the backup/restore to a different HMC for visualizing the archived data?

    We are working on the ability to export PCM data to CSV data for an upcoming release.
