Chapter 1 9
What’s in this version
WLMTK Version A.01.09 provides the toolkits ApacheTK, ODBTK, SAPTK, SASTK,
SNMPTK, and WebLogicTK. The new or changed functionality of the individual toolkits is
described below.
WLM now provides the HP-UX WLM SAP Toolkit.
This toolkit is part of the freely available WLM Toolkits, or WLMTK. The WLM SAP
Toolkit provides a script (called wlmsapmap) that identifies SAP processes based on
user-defined criteria and uses WLM’s process maps feature to place the SAP processes in
specific workload groups. For more information, see the HP-UX Workload Manager
Toolkits User’s Guide (opt/wlm/toolkits/doc/WLMTKug.pdf) and the wlmsapmap(1M)
manpage.
WLM Toolkit for Base SAS Software (SASTK) will be deprecated in a future release
However, a new and improved SASTK will be made available and will include a white
paper and example configuration files.
Duration Management Toolkit (DMTK) will be deprecated in a future release
The toolkit, including its command, will be deprecated in a future release. Support for the
wlmdurdc command will be removed in a future release. In the meantime, for
documentation, see the wlmdurdc(1M) manpage.
Known problems and workarounds
This section discusses problems and workarounds.
ODBTK: No control of instance on start-up
Issue
Assume a database instance is managed by HP-UX WLM. If WLM starts
before that instance, it sets the CPU allocation for the instance’s workload
group based on the mincpu and maxcpu values in the WLM configuration
file. The instance’s workload group remains at that initial CPU allocation
until the instance starts, allowing wlmoradc to gather metrics on it and pass
the metrics to WLM.
