# administrator executes this command:
#
# % wlmsend scouting.boost_enable 0
# Manually requested boosts receive a higher priority than
# the automatic date-based boosts. This is achieved with the ‘pri’
# keyword in the slo definitions.
#
# In the unusual case that the front office *and* the scouting
# team manually boost their allocations, the front office takes
# priority, and the scouting boost is disallowed.
#
# Allocation change frequency:
# Because wlm_interval is not explicitly set, the 60 second default
# is used. This means wlmd will collect measurements and make
# allocation changes every 60 seconds.
#
# Components:
# Uses the wlmsend and wlmrcvdc tools to relay a metric from
# an outside user.
#
# Dependencies:
# This example was designed to run with HP-UX WLM version A.01.02 or
# later.
#
#
# prm structure
# Create workload groups and designate which workload binaries
# will be placed in each. Because the baseball application
# is nicely split into scouting/bin and finance/bin, wildcards
# can be used to place the processes in the correct workload
# groups.
#
# See wlmconf(4) for complete HP-UX WLM configuration information.
