HP Global Workload Manager
HP Global Workload Manager (gWLM), a component of the HP Virtual Server
Environment (VSE) Suite, allows you to centrally define resource-sharing policies that
you can use across multiple HP servers. These policies increase system utilization and
facilitate controlled sharing of system resources. In addition, gWLM provides both
real-time and historical monitoring of the resource allocation. gWLM has three
components:
• VSE Central Management Server, or CMS (VSEMgmt)
You configure gWLM and monitor your workloads on the system where the CMS
software is installed. This system must also have HP Systems Insight Manager
installed. (For the versions of HP SIM supported, see the VSE Management Software
Installation and Update Guide, available at
http://docs.hp.com/en/netsys.html#HP%20Global%20Workload%20Manager)
• Trial Agent (T2743AA)
Install the gWLM agent software on each system where you have workloads you
want gWLM to manage. These systems are known as managed nodes. On HP-UX
managed nodes, you place each workload in an nPartition (npar), a virtual partition
(vpar), a virtual machine (created using HP Integrity Virtual Machines), a processor
set (pset), or an fss group. gWLM manages your workloads by controlling the
resource allocations to the npars, vpars, virtual machines, psets, or fss groups.
• License to Use, or LTU (T2762AA)
You can obtain the CMS and the agent free of charge. The A.03.00.00.x agent works
for a period of 120 days. After the 120 days, the agent:
— Cannot be restarted once it is stopped
