Currently if you have one LPAR at 1 min interval and second LPAR at 3 min interval then Intellimagic will both be rolled up to 3 mins. Idea is Intellimagic should not rollup and each LPAR should report at the lowest interval independent of each other so that first LPAR 1 min granularity and second LPAR at 3 min interval

Each LPAR in a CEC may have different RMF/SMF intervals to serve different reporting and analysis requirements and the 1 min granularity is important for production online market open details and test/dev LPARS may have longer intervals.  If we rollup to longer record LPAR interval then we have lost the very fine granularity to report and support our critical online market open production LPARS
