  *                      Previous version of Profiling on LPAR   *
  *                      level populated  a data table which is  *
  *                       no longer required, as it contains     *
  *                      duplicated information.                 *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
  ****************************************************************
  The Capacity Planning z/OS definitions do not support profiling
  of usage patterns on CEC, Workload, Business Application,
  Service Class and Job levels.
  
  The LPAR profiling functionality previously required a
  dedicated data table which contained duplicate data,
  rather than using a view definition.
  
  Problem conclusion:
  
  IBM Z Performance and Capacity Analytics is enhanced to add the
  following profiling views:
  
  CP_CEC_PROF_HV2
  CP_WKLD_PROF_HV2
  CP_WKLDA_PROF_HV2
  CP_WKLDB_PROF_HV2
  CP_JOB_PROF_HV2
  
  The CP_LPAR_PROF_H table is removed and replaced with
  view CP_LPAR_PROF_HV2.
  
  These views calculate the profile on hourly level, for every day
   of the week, based on the actual usage reported during the
   previous three months.
  
  
  The following new Cognos reports are provided to plot
  actual usage against the expected usage reported in the profile:
  PCASP02 SMART PATH CEC PROFILE HOURLY
  PCASP04 SMART PATH WORKLOAD PROFILE HOURLY
  PCASP05 SMART PATH APPLICATION PROFILE HOURLY
  PCASP03 SMART PATH SERVICE CLASS PROFILE HOURLY
  PCASP06 SMART PATH JOB PROFILE HOURLY
