How does replacement timing and aging work? My understanding is that aging will happen at a maximum rate of (by default) 200%, and that machines won't request replacement until 80% of lifetime (by default).
However what I observed is machines requesting replacement after 6-7 hours using the following settings:
Lifetime: 24h
MTBM: 24m
Everything else default
Is the aging multiplier per resource that is not delivered or is something else going on?
How good have you serviced those machines?
Not serviced machines age up to 200% additionally (this means three times as fast as normal), which would fit into the 6-7 hour time frame you mentioned (one third of 24 x 0.8).
Not well :-). And your explanation makes sense. I read it as "age at 200% of the normal rate" instead of "increasing age by 200% of normal". So all seems to be working as expected - thanks!
