HP-UX Workload Manager Release Notes

Known problems and workarounds

Automatic activation of Instant Capacity core without authorization

Issue An Instant Capacity (iCAP) core was automatically activated without

customer authorization.

Workaround Please contact your HP representative.

If you have Instant Capacity or Pay per use (PPU) software installed, either:

• Do not use WLM virtual partition management, or

• Use vPars version A.03.01 or later

Application hangs in FSS group

Issue On HP-UX 11i v2 (B.11.23), an application inside a workload group based on

an FSS group may hang when running in a single-processor virtual

partition, nPartition, or system.

Workaround Install patch PHKL_33052.

Shutdown slow; “Waiting for shutdown confirmation” and

“Shutdown initiated; however, ... unable to acquire confirmation”

messages displayed

Issue In some situations, WLM might take longer than expected to shut down,

especially when WLM is in the process of modifying the distribution of CPU

resources among partitions. In such cases, the shutdown request will not be

honored until the modifications are completed. Beginning with WLM

A.03.02, you might see the following message after 30 seconds:

Waiting for shutdown confirmation...

Then, if no shutdown confirmation is received within the next 90 seconds,

WLM will display the following message:

Shutdown initiated; however, we were unable to acquire

confirmation. Check the messages in /var/opt/wlm/msglog for

more details.

In versions of WLM prior to A.03.02, under similar circumstances you would

get one of the following messages after 30 seconds:

wlmd -k failed: Resource temporarily unavailable

wlmpard -k failed: Resource temporarily unavailable
