12. Click OK to accept these changes.
Unknowingly accepting unseen values:
This can happen if you modify the memory platform multiplier after selecting the destination
server, but then click OK without refreshing the destination table with the new values. The
resulting change to the utilization values shown in the Workload tab view will differ from those
seen in the previously shown destination table because the Workload tab will reflect the
modified values.
When modifying the memory platform multiplier, remember to click Refresh, and check the
updated values shown in the utilization meters in the destination table. Once you have refreshed
this table, select a server based on the new values. If you want the same server that you
selected before changing the values, you must re-select that server to enable the OK button.
The Workload tab of the Edit Scenario screen opens showing the new workload relationships.
