Intellimagic RMF/SMF automated data processing and data population can delete all preexisting LPAR data if overlaid with one LPAR data being run a second time to fill the missing data gaps

Why is this useful? Please refer to detailed description for use case.

Who would benefit? Every Intellimagic user

How should it work? Please refer to detailed description. And to expand on example below. If 9 out of 10 LPARS have successfully been processed and populated then the 10th problematic LPAR can be processed on it's own for second run that should check for duplicate data and take care of ensuring duplicate records are not written and plug the gap where there is missing data and should never delete any data from the other good and complete other 9 LPARS that again have complete data. In addition there should be a daily dashboard stating so we have daily complete data with no gaps by CEC, LPAR, Subsystem components and if there are data gaps detail exactly what is missing so Intellimagic customers and users can backfill the missing data and not be concerned that by attempting to backfill we will end up deleting other pre-existing LPARs good and complete data. Also check whether Intellimagic can safely process different RMF/SMF intervals for LPARS running on the same CEC.
