  • Resource Config Advisor: wrong presentation of advices for LPAR virtual CPUs
  • Resource config advisor: LPAR virtual CPU advices did not work, it was wrong since v7.90
  • CPU Workload Estimator: CPU was presented in LPAR graphs instead of rPerf, it was wrong since v7.90
  • Alerting: LPAR CPU core alerting: peak time (time for measured treshold) was increasing about 30min with each new defined alert during execution
  • Custom Group: old unused LPARs break graphs under some circumstances, it was wrong since v7.90
  • Live Partition Mobility: new LPM mapping did not work, it was wrong since v7.90
  • HMC Rest API did not work with older Perl 5.8.8 on AIX, it was wrong since v7.92
  • Favourites feature: it disappeared from the menu, it was wrong since v7.90
• VMware fix:
