n
Template: To roll up at the template level means that each template's scores are averaged when rolled
up to the badge level.
For example, Mapping 1 has three templates using the scores provided in the Scoring table. The score is
calculated as (80+50+100)/3=77, where 77 is the score.
n
Mapping: To roll up at the mapping level means that the score for each mapping associated with a
badge is averaged when rolled up to the badge level.
For example, Mapping 1 and Mapping 2 are assigned to the same badge. The score is calculated as
(77+53)/2=65, where 77 is the Mapping 1 average, 53 is the Mapping 2 average, and 65 is the average of
the two mappings included in the badge.
Midpoint and Magnitude Score Calculations
Use midpoint and magnitude to refine how the badge scores are ultimately calculated for vCenter
Operations Manager.
n
Midpoint: The score that triggers the magnitude to increase or decrease the returned score.
n
Magnitude: The percentage by which any score that is above or below the midpoint is calculated.
The calculation is {detail level score}-{midpoint}={difference}; {difference}*{magnitude}={adjusted
magnitude factor}; {detail level score}+{adjusted magnitude factor}={adjusted score}.
Detail level scores can differ even where the midpoint and magnitude remain the same.
