The policy report

To create a policy report, issue a REPORT POLICY command. For the syntax of this command, see page REPORT POLICY. The report contains information about the active policy and its status. Indentation is used in the report to group related items together. The reported information indicates:

• The name of the active policy, and its enabled or disabled status. A policy is disabled if the Provisioning Manager is running in MANUAL processing mode. In all other processing modes, the policy is enabled.
• The logical processor scope of the policy. For each limit, the system and sysplex names, the processor limits, and the defined action are displayed. An asterisk (*) marks the limit as defined by the LPAR.
• The maximum processor scope of the policy. Two lines are displayed for each entry. The first line contains the CPC name and the maximum temporary capacity that can be activated by all provisioning rules. The second line denotes the primary and secondary capacity increments that are defined for the CPC.
• The maximum defined capacity scope of the policy. Two lines are displayed for each entry. The first line contains the system name, the sysplex name, and the amount of Defined Capacity that is allowed to be increased by all provisioning rules. The second line denotes the primary and secondary capacity increments that are defined for the system.
• The maximum group capacity scope of the policy. Two lines are displayed for each entry. The first line contains the group name, the CPC name, and the amount of Group Capacity that is allowed to be increased by all provisioning rules. The second line denotes the primary and secondary capacity increments that are defined for the group.
• The provisioning rules that are contained in the policy. The information displayed about each rule includes:
  • The rule name, the current enabled or disabled status, and the default status as defined in the policy when it was activated
  • The processor scope for the rule. One line is displayed for each entry. It contains the CPC name and the temporary capacity that can be activated by the conditions in this rule.
  • The defined capacity scope for the rule. One line is displayed for each entry. It contains the system name, the sysplex name, and the amount of Defined Capacity that is allowed to be increased by the conditions in this rule.
  • The group capacity scope for the rule. One line is displayed for each entry. It contains the group name, the CPC name, and the amount of Group Capacity that is allowed to be increased by the conditions in this rule.
  • The provisioning conditions. For each provisioning condition, the following information is given:
    • The provisioning condition name, the current enabled or disabled status, and the default status as defined in the policy when it was activated.
    • The workload conditions, if any. For each workload condition, the following information is given:
      • The workload condition name and the name of the sysplex this condition is for.
      • The name of the system to which the workload condition applies.
      • The importance filters that are defined in the workload condition, if any. For each importance filter, the following information is given:
        • The importance (I), the provisioning performance index limit (PL), the provisioning performance index limit duration (PD), the deprovisioning performance index limit (DL), the deprovisioning performance index limit duration (DD), and the scope for the performance index (S).

      • The included service classes that are defined in the workload condition, if any. For each included service class, the following information is given:

        • The Workload Management (WLM) service definition name, policy name, service class name, and service class period number to be observed.
        • The provisioning performance index limit (PL), the provisioning performance index limit duration (PD), the deprovisioning performance index limit (DL), the deprovisioning performance index limit duration (DD) and the scope for the performance index (S).

        • The excluded service classes that are defined in the workload condition, if any. For each excluded service class, the following information is given:

          • The Workload Management (WLM) service definition name, policy name, service class name, and service class period number not to be observed.
    • The time conditions. All dates and times are reported in UTC. For nonrecurring and recurring time conditions, the information is different.
      • For nonrecurring time conditions, the following information is given:
        • The time condition name and status. The status might include:
          • Pending
          • Observing and enabled
          • Observing and disabled
          • Active and enabled
          • Active and disabled
          • Drained and enabled
          • Drained and disabled
          • Inactive

          For more information about the time condition status, see page Processing policy time conditions. Because time conditions cannot be enabled or disabled, the status reflects the enabled or disabled status of all the elements it is contained in. A time condition is enabled if the policy, the rule, and the provisioning condition are all enabled. Otherwise it is disabled.

        • The start, deadline, and end time of the time condition.
      • For recurring time conditions, the following information is given:
        • The recurring time condition name and status. The status might include:
          • Pending
          • Observing and enabled
          • Observing and disabled
          • Active and enabled
          • Active and disabled
          • Drained and enabled
          • Drained and disabled
          • Inactive

          For more information about the time condition status, see page Processing policy time conditions. Because time conditions cannot be enabled or disabled, the status reflects the enabled or disabled status of all the elements it is contained in. A time condition is enabled if the policy, the rule, and the provisioning condition are all enabled. Otherwise it is disabled.

        • The start date, end date, and the selected days of the week. The days of the week are marked with "X" if the day of the week is allowed and with a "-" if the day of the week is not allowed. The days are reported from Monday to Sunday.
        • The start time, deadline time, and end time of the recurring time condition.
