the analysis, making the overall analysis less useful.

ii.

Select the minimum percentage of valid data points that must be present within the
period (default: 95%), called the Valid Threshold.

iii. Choose the data aggregation type (default: average), called Compute Trending of.

Setting utilization limits

Utilization limits allow you to set service level objectives for workloads based on overall system
utilization. For any given workload, you can specify one or more service level objectives. Global
utilization limits are applied to real workloads recognized by Matrix Operating Environment and
to workloads within scenarios to enable analysis of collected data (actual utilization) as it relates
to desired resource utilization. Within a scenario, when a service level objective cannot be met
