• Temporary Instant Capacity (TiCAP) activates capacity in a
temporary “calling-card fashion,” such as in 20-day or 30-day
increments (where a day equals 24 hours for one core). With
Temporary Instant Capacity on the system, any number of Instant
Capacity cores can be activated as long as your prepaid temporary
capacity time has not expired. By default, if 15 or fewer processing
days are available, WLM stops activating Temporary Instant
Capacity. Beginning with this release of WLM, you can change this
default by setting the WLM global arbiter
utility_reserve_threshold keyword.
• The Pay per use Toolkit (PPUTK) and the utilitydc command are
no longer supported and have been removed from the product. Please
use the simpler and more robust Temporary Instant Capacity/Pay
per use solution available with wlmpard.
• The WLM installation script no longer detects whether the correct
version of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is running or
whether the correct version of PRM is running. To run the WLM GUI
(wlmgui) and the wizard (wlmcw) requires JRE version 1.4.2 or later.
For PRM-based configurations, PRM C.03.00 or later is required. To
take advantage of the latest updates to WLM, use the latest version
of PRM (C.03.02.02 or later).
• You can use WLM and PRM to manage resources on the same system
at the same time if the PRM configuration uses FSS groups only (no
PSET-based groups) and the WLM configuration is strictly
host-based. For more information, see “WLM and Process Resource
Manager (PRM)” on page 59.
