HP-UX Workload Manager Toolkits A.01.07.01 Release Notes for HP-UX 11.0, HP-UX 11i V1, and HP-UX 11i V2

ODBTK WLM Oracle Database Toolkit provides an easy mechanism for feeding Oracle
database metrics into HP-UX WLM
ODBTK offers the ability to:
• Keep response times for your transactions below a given level by setting
response-time SLOs
• Increase an instance’s available CPU when a particular user connects to the
instance
• Increase an instance’s available CPU when more than n users are connected
• Increase an instance’s available CPU when a particular job is active
• Give an instance n percent of the CPU for each process in the instance (This
feature is available only with HP-UX WLM Version A.01.02 and later.)
• Give an instance n percent of the CPU for each user connection to the
instance (This feature is available only with HP-UX WLM Version A.01.02
and later.)
PPUTK WLM Pay Per Use Toolkit provides automatic CPU activation and deactivation
PPUTK offers the ability to:
• Optimize use of Pay Per Use systems by keeping the number of active CPUs
to the minimum needed to meet SLOs, thereby minimizing Pay Per Use costs
• Automatically activate and deactivate CPUs as needed to meet critical SLOs
on Pay Per Use systems
• Automatically activate CPUs as needed to meet critical SLOs on iCOD (Instant
Capacity on Demand) systems
SASTK WLM SAS Toolkit provides enhancements to DMTK specifically for SAS users
SASTK offers:
• A SAS macro for instrumenting jobs to provide “percent complete” data to
WLM for improved duration management
• Example scripts showing how to manage the duration of SAS jobs
SNMPTK WLM SNMP Toolkit provides a data collector called snmpdc that fetches values
from an SNMP agent for use as metrics in your WLM configuration. For more
information, see snmpdc(1M).
SNMPTK offers the ability to retrieve metrics from sources such as:
• PRM data
• Pay Per Use data
for use in your WLM configuration.
WebLogicTK WLM BEA WebLogic Server Toolkit provides a data collector called wlmwlsdc
that tracks metrics indicating how busy WebLogic Server instances are.
WebLogicTK offers the ability to:
• Manually provide a single instance an increasing amount of CPU resources
in the form of a dynamic PSET (processor set) for benchmarking
• Separate an instance from other workloads, as well as from other instances,
while automatically maintaining performance using a dynamic PSET based
on:
◦ Group CPU usage
◦ Server instance queue metrics
