Is it possible to dynamically optimize(not change) capacity of a server in SimEvents? I know we can do discrete-event optimization in Sim Events but is it possible to know the optimal capacity of a server for each time period i.e., I can increase/decrease the capacity in any period

From your comment I see that you would like to the change the number of servers in each period (each step in simulation?). Currently, this is not possible with Entity Server as the parameter 'Capacity' cannot be tuned during simulation.
To answer your query, you can have a number of Entity Servers with Capacity being 1 and an Entity Gate on the input side of each Single Server. You can then control the number of servers available by enabling those Entity Gates based on the number of Entity Servers you need during each time period. This might put a graphical limitation if number of Entity Servers is large.
