To create a defined capacity report,
issue a REPORT DEFINEDCAPACITY command. For the syntax of this command,
see page REPORT DEFINEDCAPACITY. The report contains
information about the Defined Capacity of a system that is managed
by the Provisioning Manager. The displayed Defined Capacity belongs
to an LPAR which runs a system observed by the Provisioning Manager.
The report helps you to understand how much Defined Capacity is currently
active and which part of it has been provisioned by the Provisioning
Manager.
The reported information indicates:
CPC.LPAR
The name of the CPC and LPAR where the Defined Capacity is located.
Sysplex.System
The sysplex and the system name of the system running in the
LPAR which provides the management data.
Management state
The current state of the Provisioning Manager for the management
of the Defined Capacity. Optionally contains the time when the state
will conclude. Possible values are:
initializing 1
Information from the observed system on the LPAR is not yet
available.
initializing 2
Defined Capacity information about the LPAR is not yet available
from the hardware interface.
not increased
Defined Capacity information of LPAR is available. Defined Capacity
has not yet been increased.
blocked
A Defined Capacity increase or decrease has been detected recently.
The Provisioning Manager will not perform any Defined Capacity changes
until the displayed time.
decrease blocked
The Provisioning Manager has increased Defined Capacity. No
Defined Capacity increase is currently needed and increased Defined
Capacity that is no longer required will not be decreased before the
displayed time.
increased
The Provisioning Manager has increased Defined Capacity. Currently
no further changes are needed.
increase suggested
The Provisioning Manager is in analysis mode and has suggested
to increased Defined Capacity.
increase requested
The Provisioning Manager is in confirmation mode and currently
has an outstanding message asking to confirm the increase of Defined
Capacity.
increase rejected
The Provisioning Manager is in confirmation mode and a recommendation
to increase Defined Capacity has been rejected by the operator. Recommendations
for a Defined Capacity increase will not be issued before the displayed
time.
blocked after failure
The Provisioning Manager attempted to change the Defined Capacity
but received a notification from the hardware interface that it failed.
The Provisioning Manager will not perform any Defined Capacity changes
until the displayed time.
change outstanding
The Provisioning Manager initiated a Defined Capacity change
that has not been confirmed yet by the observed system running in
the affected LPAR.
decrease suggested
The Provisioning Manager is in analysis mode and has suggested
to decrease Defined Capacity.
decrease requested
The Provisioning Manager is in confirmation mode and currently
has an outstanding message asking to confirm the decrease of Defined
Capacity.
decrease rejected
The Provisioning Manager is in confirmation mode and a recommendation
to decrease Defined Capacity has been rejected by the operator. Recommendations
for a Defined Capacity decrease will not be issued before the displayed
time.
policy limit reached
The Provisioning Manager has detected a demand for increased
Defined Capacity, but the policy limits have been exhausted. Defined
Capacity will not be further increased under the current circumstances.
reinitializing
Information from the observed system on the LPAR is not available
after a connectivity problem or a domain configuration change.
connection lost
Connection to the observed system on the LPAR has been lost
and is not available again yet.
blocked after restart
The Provisioning Manager has resumed processing and needs to
readjust its management.
not managed
in manual mode.
connecting to hardware
The Provisioning Manager is trying to connect to the hardware
interface.
global minimum reached
The Provisioning Manager has detected a need for decreased Defined
Capacity, but the global minimum limit disallows a further decrease.
Defined Capacity will not be decreased under the current circumstances.
For the management states
initializing 1,
initializing
2,
reinitializing,
connection lost,
and
not managed the following values will be displayed
as
not available.
Policy limit
The policy limit of additional capacity indicates the total
additional Defined Capacity in MSU that is currently allowed by active
policy elements.
Management base
The Defined Capacity management base indicates the Defined Capacity
in MSU at which the Provisioning Manager takes up and eventually concludes
management.
Managed capacity
The additional Defined Capacity in MSU which is currently managed
by the Provisioning Manager. This is the amount MSU by which the Provisioning
Manager has currently increased the Defined Capacity.
Current capacity
The current Defined Capacity in MSU.
Remaining time until capping
The remaining time in minutes until the reported LPAR is expected
to be capped by Defined Capacity or Group Capacity.
4 hour rolling average consumption
The current four hour rolling average consumption of the reported
LPAR.
An example of a defined capacity report is:
CPO1095I Defined capacity report generated at 12/22/2012 08:45:10
Defined capacity for LPAR SAMPLPAR on CPC SAMPCPC
CPC.LPAR: SAMPCPC.SAMPLPAR
Sysplex.System: SYSPLEX.SYSTEM1
Management state: increased
Policy limit: 50 additional MSU
Management base: 100 MSU
Managed capacity: 30 additional MSU
Current capacity: 130 MSU
Remaining time until capping: 3 minutes
4 hour rolling average consumption: 122 MSU
