    Report FCX306 (LSHARACT) displays the weight defined for each
    CPU type in an active LPAR. The weight is used to calculate
    the LPAR's entitlement for each CPU type, which is displayed in
    the "Entlment" field. When a LPAR is deactivated, its weights
    and entitlements should no longer be displayed, but they
    continue to be.
    

Problem conclusion

  • When an LPAR is deactivated, its weight is set to zero.
    Calculation and display of all other data fields in report
    FCX306 (LSHARACT) is bypassed for the LPAR.
