IJ45254: 'LPARCAPACITY' VALUE IS LESS THAN TWO DECIMAL PLACES

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Solaris OS servers with No Scan Data due to 'improper'
  'LparCapacity' value (this can be verified by looking into
  cit_capacity_xxx_tlm_hw scans).
  Example: <LparCapacity>0.007812</LparCapacity>
  ILMT logic does not handle values smaller than 0.01.
  
  Error in ILMT import.log:
  no LPAR layer or its data was incomplete (make sure the scanner
  on the endpoint is in the latest version)! - HW scan data will
  be discarded
  
  Troubleshooting the issue:
  1 - Enable import debug in ILMT via Management > Advanced Server
  Settings, and change the value of the debug_logging_for_imports
  parameter to true.
  2 - Perform a single capacity scan for this server as per https
  ://www.ibm.com/docs/en/license-metric-tool?topic=configuration-
  step-5-initiating-capacity-scan-all-computers#t_initiating_capa
  city_scan
  3 - Run ILMT import via Management -> Data Imports
  WARN: [ILMTCore] (ImportCapacity-Thread:0)
  validateHwScanDataConsistency - Error: no LPAR layer or its data
  was incomplete (make sure the scanner on the endpoint is in the
