Tandem Capacity Model (TCM) Manual

If you select Create Default Apportionment Tables, TCM assumes that the name of the apportionment
tables you are working with is the same as the name of the apportionment method on the Workload
Apportionment screen (with a file extension of .AWA). If this table name is not correct, enter the
file name in the appropriate area of the dialog box. To apply these changes, click OK.
If you select Change Current Apportionment Tables, a list of apportionment methods in the current
folder appears. Select the name of an existing apportionment method. Selecting this option causes
the Workload Apportionment model to use the selected method. To reapportion the existing model,
click OK.
History Tab
The History tab provides options for working with the Capacity History database of a WA model.
Update History (F10)
The Update History option adds summary performance information from the WA model to the
Capacity History database. The file name of the database has an .HST extension and appears on
the TCM Parameters screen in the History File Name field.
Search History (F11)
The Search History option searches the Capacity History database for entries that satisfy
user-specified search criteria. Before selecting this option, you need to specify one or more search
criteria in the fields labeled Search Criteria on the Capacity History screen.
NOTE: You cannot select WA options until you press the Escape key to end the search. For more
information about Excel databases, refer to the Microsoft Excel Reference Manual.
Delete History
The Delete History option allows the TCM administrator to purge selected records from the Capacity
History database. To delete records, enter the deletion criteria in the Search Criteria fields on the
Capacity History screen. After a warning message, all records that satisfy the criteria are deleted
