Tandem Capacity Model (TCM) Manual

Exit TCM (SF5)
The Exit TCM option ends the TCM session and returns you to Windows.
Find Tab
The Find tab, which you can select by pressing function key F7, lists the Performance model screens
that you can display.
If no charts are open in the current session, the Chart menu item is disabled to indicate that the
option is not available.
If the history database has not been opened, the Capacity History items are disabled.
Update Tab
The Update tab contains all the update operations that can be performed on a Performance model.
Access to some options is limited to users with a TCM administrator or super-user authorization
level.
NOTE: After you use one of the options on the Update tab, you need to use the Calculate Now
option on the Options tab (F9) to see the effect on the TCM screens.
Load Baseline Data (F3)
The Load Baseline Data option loads selected performance data from a WA model or a CSV file
into the Performance model. After you select this option, a list of the WA baseline files or CSV files
appears. You can select the appropriate file from this list or type another name.
The Create New Performance Model dialog box appears. Select whether to load the Performance
model from a WA model or a CSV file and one of the following:
• WA baseline file (when loading from a WA model)
• CSV file and an apportionment method
When you select the WA Model button, the WA Baseline File list appears and the Using
Apportionment field is unavailable. When you select CSV File, CSV files appear instead of
WA Baseline files, and the Using Apportionment field is available.
