Agent for PowerVM: monitoring renamed "Shared CPU Pool"
Issue/Introduction:
Error Message : <Please see attached file for image>
The renamed CPU Pool appears twice in the Shared CPU Pool table
When renaming a CPU Pool (change of case), in the Console, the data for the new names is well historized.
The old names are still present and the data no longer appears in the Sysload Portal.
Cause:
Cause type:
By design
Root Cause: The Monitor multiple processor pools name is case sensitive
Environment:
OS: IBM AIX

Follow these steps to purge the old :
