After successfully activating the first 10 LPARs, the customer notices that the available RAM on physical machine reported by the HMC has reduced more than the sum of the memory currently allocated to the activated LPARs.

Which LPAR attribute is the likely cause for the excess in memory consumption?

A. Active memory expansion factor
