HP-UX Workload Manager Release Notes

Known problems and workarounds

Temporary Instant Capacity expires while WLM is managing

nPartitions

Issue

WLM manages nPartitions using its wlmpard daemon. Assume wlmpard is

started on a system that has Temporary Instant Capacity in use. If that

temporary capacity expires, wlmpard will still be able to deactivate CPUs

without any problems. However, wlmpard may attempt to activate CPUs

based on the expired capacity. These attempts will fail because the

temporary capacity no longer exists. wlmpard will not abort, but it may

continue to attempt to activate unavailable CPUs, generating a message of

the following form in /var/opt/wlm/msglog:

Error increasing CPU count on partition par_name (has x needs

y).
