Base Load Ramping Policy

Introduction​

This policy rolls out new features based on closed loop feedback. The ramping criteria are defined by drivers that determine conditions for advancing, reversing, or resetting the ramping to its initial state. The ramping process consists of a series of steps that progress if the feature is considered healthy.

info

See reference for the LoadRamp component that is used within this blueprint.

Dynamic Configuration​

note

The following configuration parameters can be dynamically configured at runtime, without reloading the policy.

Parameters​

TypeArray of string
Default Value

Parameterreset
DescriptionReset load ramp to the first step. This setting can be updated at the runtime without shutting down the policy.
