# prm structure

# Create workload groups. Designate which workload binaries

# and users will be placed in each. We will be managing

# two workloads, apache and netscape, and two groups of users,

# testers and coders. Users not belonging to either group

# are placed in OTHERS.

# The users section places individuals into a workload group based

# on their login. Users not listed will run in OTHERS. Because

# application records take precedence over user records, if user larry

# runs netscape, that process will run in workload group ‘surfers’

# rather than ‘testers’. In a similar manner, if user larry runs

# httpd, it will run in ‘servers’ because the app record is used

# even though the user, larry, does not have permission to

# explicitly start or move other jobs to ‘servers’. Consult

# wlmconf(4) and prmconf(4) for more information.

# Note that netgroups can be used in the users record. For

# instance, if all development staff belonged to a netgroup

# ‘devel_netgrp’, this line could be used to place them all in

# workload group ‘coders’:

# users = +devel_netgrp : coders surfers,

# +test_netgrp : testers surfers;

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