Correct. I was just using the environment presented and assuming all LPARs were IPLed. But if the smaller LPAR is capped I don't think it will exceed the cap, regardless of what else is going on.

Relative weight LPAR sizing is subject to the mix of LPARs that are active at any given point in time. In your example, if the LPAR whose weight is 80 is not IPL'd then the LPAR with weight=20 will get 100% of the processor (1000 MIPS in your numerical example) without changing the weight numbers. This is a far cry from the 200 MIP target. I believe that the calculation is: ((LPAR weight)/SUM(all _active_ LPAR weights))*(CEC capacity) Again, assuming that initial capping is activated.
