This workspace is displayed when you select a specific row in the LPAR Cluster table of the LPAR Clusters workspace. It provides a filtered view of information for the specific cluster you selected.
The workspace contains two charts: the LPAR Logical Utilization (Velocity) chart and the LPAR Physical Utilization chart.
The LPAR Logical Utilization bar chart graphically shows how well each LPAR is able to obtain CPU resources by charting the Effective Weight Percent (that is, actual) and Logical Weight Percent (target) values for a given LPAR. LPARs that are not accomplishing their target weight show an Effective %Weight bar that is shorter than their Logical %Weight bar. The Effective Weight Index attribute in the CPC LPARs Status report is provided as a measure of this comparison.
The LPAR Physical Utilization bar chart graphically shows, for each LPAR, the Physical CPU Percent Busy (actual utilization) graphed against the Current Weight Percent (target utilization). Examine this chart to locate those LPARs having a significant discrepancy between the height of the two bars. These LPARs may warrant further examination. A significant discrepancy is not necessarily an indication that there is a performance problem. The CPU Index attribute in the CPC LPARs Status report is provided as a measure of this comparison.
Tables in this workspace provide information about CPC status, LPAR Cluster status, and statistics for LPARs assigned to the selected cluster. The first two tables provide CPC and Cluster summary information. The third table provides detailed performance information for the LPARS that are configured in the cluster. The Effective Weight Index column has two predefined thresholds.
If Effective Weight Index equal to 0.9, you will
see a warning indicator.
If Effective Weight Index less than 0.8 you will
see a critical indicator.
You can link to this workspace from the LPAR Clusters table of the LPAR Clusters workspace.
This workspace can record history.
