Overridden Consumption
Displays the sum of all overridden consumption values
entered on the Consumption tab of the license properties. See
Overridden Consumption for more details.
There is no direct mathematical relationship between these three
totaled values. You can only conclude that someone has applied 90 points of
overrides somewhere in the list of devices, and that the net result has been to
reduce the overall consumption from 150 to 140. For more about the relationships between various
consumption fields (with special emphasis on IBM PVU licenses), see Relationships Between Consumption Fields.
Tip: Because the totals displayed on this tab are simple copies of the
relevant column totals on the Consumption tab, you cannot
expect any mathematical relationship between the values here. An override value
on one device may increase its consumption, while another override for a
different device may decrease its consumption. Consider this simplified example
for three devices, with the column totals in bold below:
Points from inventory | Override entered manually | Resulting consumption |
---|---|---|
50 | 30 | 30 |
50 | 60 | 60 |
50 | 0 | 50 |
150 | 90 | 140 |
