user_application_records.wlm

This example shows how to place applications in workload groups. It also

shows that application records take precedence when both user records

and application records are in effect for an application.

# Name:

# user_application_records.wlm

# Version information:

# $Revision: 1.13 $

# Caveats:

# DO NOT MODIFY this file in its /opt/wlm/examples/wlmconf location!

# Make modifications to a copy and place that copy outside the

# /opt/wlm/ directory, as items below /opt/wlm will be replaced

# or modified by future HP-UX WLM product updates.

# Purpose:

# Demonstrate the use of, and precedence between, user and application

# records in placing processes in workload groups.

# A development server is funded and used by two groups, test and

# development. Along with normal test and development work, the

# server also supports the two groups’ joint website (via apache),

# and is the box employees use to fetch web pages (with netscape).

# However, in the past, both web functions, apache and netscape,

# have negatively affected the performance of the box. To correct

# this problem, users’ netscape sessions are limited to 10% of the

# CPU resources, and the httpd processes are limited to 10%. The

# remaining 80 percent is split 35 for test, 35 for development, and

# 10 percent for users not belonging to either group.

# Components:

# No external data collectors are required.

# Dependencies:

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

# later. It uses the cpushares keyword introduced in A.01.02, so

# is incompatible with earlier versions of HP-UX WLM.
