5. Change the Data Range if a different size of data collection is desired, and click OK to refresh
the table display.

6. Change the Meter Representation if a different calculation is desired .
7. The first table presents the workloads selected for the move.
8. If the original system that the workload resided on differs significantly from the intended
destination system on which you intend to run the workload, use the memory platform
multiplier to adjust for differences between the two systems.
9. If desired, change the Headroom Calculation.
10. In the next table, labeled Select Destination System, take a few moments to mouse over
various entries in the table and analyze the information presented. This table lists the possible
destination systems available in this scenario, their current resource utilization information,
and their headroom rating.
11. Select a system to be the new host for the workload.
12. Click OK.
The Workload tab of the Edit Scenario screen opens showing the new workload
relationships.
Parking a workload
When constructing a scenario, it can be desirable to temporarily remove the effects of workloads
