Table 5–7. Different Magnitude Values
The adjusted score is the score that is pulled by the vCenter Operations Manager VCM Adapter and
appears as part of the Risk badge score.
You modify the midpoint and magnitude to give the Compliance subbadge scores a stronger or weaker
influence on the Risk parent badge. For example, if the compliance mappings score is configured so that it
normally scores 100 and you want any deviation to clearly degrade the score, you can set the midpoint to
99 and the magnitude to a high value. The resulting adjusted score lowers the value of the compliance
score and the Risk score when any noncompliance is found.
If you do not want to apply midpoint and magnitude calculations, set the magnitude to 0.
Scoring in vCenter Operations Manager
The standards compliance scores are pulled from VCM into vCenter Operations Manager and added to
the Risk badge score using the following calculation:
n
Risk: 100 - GeometricMean(badge|time_remaining, badge|capacity_remaining, 100 - badge|stress,
badge|riskcompliance)
