# Purpose:

# Demonstrate the use of HP-UX WLM to enable a service-level objective

# (SLO) when a certain event occurs.

# Dependencies:

# This example was designed to run with version HP-UX WLM A.01.02

# or later.

# prm structure

# See wlmconf(4) for complete HP-UX WLM configuration information.

# Define workload groups in the prm structure. Individual users are

# assigned to groups in this structure as well.

# In this example configuration, the user backup_meister can execute

# applications in only the Backups group.

prm {

groups = Backups : 3;

users = backup_meister: Backups;

}

# slo structure

# The following slo structure is enabled and disabled based on the

# value of the metric backup_running. If backup_running’s value is

# zero then the SLO is disabled, and any application running in the

# group Backups will get only 1% of the CPU resources. When the

# value is nonzero (for example, 1) the SLO is enabled and the groups

# within the Backups group get a fixed allocation of 60% of the CPU

# resources on the system.
