Memory breakdown table

The memory Breakdown by Partitions table lists information that is based on partitions over the selected time period. The memory breakdown table is displayed at the bottom of the main window.

The Memory Breakdown by Partitions table

The Breakdown by Partitions table shows memory utilization data for logical partitions. Each row indicates whether the partition is configured for dedicated or shared access to memory resources. In addition, you can view the size of the memory available, the amount of memory that is assigned, and the maximum amount of memory that is assigned to the memory pool for that partition. The Assigned Trend column shows the overall usage trend for the assigned memory over the time interval you selected. The Breakdown by Partitions table also lists the total number of partitions for that system.

The Breakdown by Partitions table also shows information about the Assigned Virtual Persistent Memory. The persistent memory is available only when the Hardware Management Console (HMC) is at Version 9.1.940, or later, and when the firmware is at level FW940, or later.

Sorting the memory breakdown table

You can sort the table by clicking the up or down chevron next to the name of the column that you want to sort. You might choose to sort the columns so that you can view the entries, ranking from the lowest to the highest, or vice versa.

You can select which columns are displayed in the Memory Breakdown table. To change which columns are displayed, click the arrow in the header row of the table.

Filtering the memory breakdown table

You can search for specific entries such as the partition name within the table. The search shows all table rows that contain text in any cell that matches the filter text.
