When the cost limit is considered, iCap calculates the relative cost of MSU on an LPAR or group. iCap evaluates the cost of one LPAR or group against another LPAR or group. The relative cost of an LPAR or group is calculated in cost units, and the cost limit is the sum of cost units for all of the LPARs and groups that a policy manages.
