This object defines the way in which the data is used by the Adjustment TCA feature for the PM instance. This specifies the way in which the statistics samples are handled and the way in which the adjustment basis and threshold values are interpreted. When bitsPerSecond is specified, the data is intended to represent a throughput as a rate of data in bits per second. When analyzing samples for the Adjustment TCA feature, the statistic value is internally adjusted so that it represents a number of bits. For example a statistic that represents a number of bytes is multiplied by 8 to determine the bit count. The statistic value representing bits is then compared to the boundary value(s) derived from the adjustment basis and threshold value(s). The adjustment basis and threshold values are considered to be values representing data in bits-per-second and are not subjected to adjustment.
