brackets ([, ]). Because of the presence of the square brackets, the
sample file will not pass the syntax-checking mode of wlmd (wlmd -c
template).
• “stretch_goal.wlm” on page 318
Example configuration file to demonstrate how to use multiple SLOs
for the same workload (but at different priority levels) to specify a
stretch goal for a workload. A stretch goal is one that we would like
to have met if all other higher-priority SLOs are being satisfied and
additional CPU resources are available.
• “time_activated.wlm” on page 321
This configuration file demonstrates the use of WLM for allocating a
fixed entitlement to a particular group of users only during a certain
time period.
• “transient_groups.wlm” on page 323
This configuration file demonstrates the use of transient groups. The
groups in this configuration consume no resources when they have
no active SLOs.
• “twice_weekly_boost.wlm” on page 326
This configuration file demonstrates a conditional entitlement with a
moderately complex condition.
• “usage_goal.wlm” on page 331
This configuration demonstrates the usage goal for SLOs. This type
of goal is very different from the typical performance goal in that it
does not require explicit metric data.
• “usage_stretch_goal.wlm” on page 334
This configuration demonstrates how to use multiple SLOs for
several workloads, defining a stretch goal in addition to a base usage
goal for each workload.
• “user_application_records.wlm” on page 338
A configuration file that demonstrates the use of, and precedence
between, user and application records in placing processes in
workload groups.
