Automated capacity management_advanced highlights


If your datacenter has sub-capacity pricing arrangements with IBM or participating independent software vendors, Automated Capacity Management (ACM) controls batch load at peak times, based on the rolling 4-hour average (R4HA) of CPU usage to allow your datacenter to significantly lower monthly software license fees.

With ACM enabled, BMC AMI Ops Automation for Batch ThruPut is aware of capacity limits. They may be defined as part of your soft capping process as LPAR Defined Capacity, LPAR Group capacity limits, or both. ACM also allows you to specify a capacity value for it to use as the capacity limit, either for a particular LPAR or sets of LPARs.

ACM monitors the R4HA of CPU usage and constrains or defers low importance batch work as the system approaches its capacity limit.

For more information on ACM in general, see ACM space; for PCS-specific information see the section in the PCS Usage space.
