Example iCap report (where adjustment is possible)


The following example shows a report where adjustment is possible and the maximum allowed MSUs is reduced by 5%:

  • The user requested an adjustment percentage of 5% (shown in the % to Reduce from Peak MSUs field).
  • The amount of low-importance work running on the LPARs is 62.92% (shown in the Low-Importance Contribution % field).

    The Low-Importance Contribution % field shows the maximum adjustment percentage possible. The adjustment percentage must be an integer, so the maximum adjustment percentage possible is 62%.

    Warning

    Important

    For adjustment to occur, the Low-Importance Contribution % must be higher than the % to Reduce from Peak MSUs.

  • The actual adjustment percentage is 5% (shown in the Recommended % to Reduce from Peak MSUs field).

Adjustment is possible because the Low-Importance Contribution % (62.92%) is higher than the requested % to Reduce from Peak MSUs (5%). So, the maximum allowed MSUs is reduced by 5%.

Success

Tip

If you want to see the total peak 4HRA for the managed LPARs and groups before adjustment, set the % to Reduce from Peak MSUs value to 0.
