WLMTK Version A.01.09 supports HP-UX 11i v1 (B.11.11) and HP-UX 11i v2 (B.11.23). It
enhances functionality provided by HP-UX Workload Manager (WLM) and simplifies using
WLM with other products.
WLM provides goal-based workload management. This management enables automatic
resource allocation and application performance management through the use of prioritized
service-level objectives (SLOs). It provides this functionality by automating features of
HP Process Resource Manager (PRM), HP-UX Virtual Partitions, nPartitions, and processor
sets.
WLMTK consists of several toolkits:
ODBTK WLM Oracle Database Toolkit provides an easy mechanism for feeding
Oracle database metrics into HP-UX WLM.

response-time SLOs
Increase an instance’s available CPU when a particular user connects to
the instance

n
