• The jcfcolvmhcsm command, which obtains virtualization configuration information from HCSM and outputs it to a virtualization configuration information file, has been added.

• The jcfcolvmkvm command, which obtains virtualization configuration information from KVM and outputs it to a virtualization configuration information file, has been added.

• The -storm option, which specifies whether to enable the suppression of repeated-event monitoring, has been added to the jcoimdef command.
