Hi list, We aim to cap the only active LPAR on the CEC(26 MSU) to 24 MSU. But, I'm a bit confuse when I checked the RMF CPU Activity report as below, which shows that with the interval, SYS2 was able to use up to 25 MSU. (Highlighted) So my questions are: 1. Is this because CPU capping is not working for only one active LPAR on the CEC? If it's the case, any reference? 2. Or, this is related to the WEIGHT value we used to CAP? in our case, we reference our CEC capacity is 26 MSU (about 171 MIPS), target to CAP 24 MSU (160 MIPS). . But, for client's sake, we use MIPS value as the WEIGHT,i.e 160. (as highlighted in the report). And, this mislead the Lpar scheduler that it is over 100% of the CEC. Thus, SYS2 can use as much as it needs. 3. Or any other posibility? Pls shed some light, thanks a lot!
