Complete Step 2 of the host consolidation project creation process as follows:
Select an appropriate benchmark from the drop-down menu.
Specify SPECint®_base_rate2006 for database hosts, application hosts, or mixed-workload hosts
Specify SPECjbb®2005 for middleware platforms
Click Add Source Servers to select the source servers to be consolidated from a list of managed server candidates. Use the filtering criteria to refine your target search. Choose from the filtered results, then click Select.
The sources you select appear in the table. Note that you can subsequently cull the list by removing selected source servers.
Optionally set server I/O capacities for disk I/O request and network I/O volume capacities. Click Specify Server I/O Capacity to estimate these I/O capacities for all source involved in the consolidation project. Note that you can subsequently fine-tune these estimates by clicking a row and editing the values for the various capacities.
