Configuring HP WebQoS for HP-UX
178
performed by an admission
controller, typically in response to
heavy load on the server. The
request is given a time slot at
which it is expected thatthe server
will have enough capacity to
handle the entire session.
session redirection -Redirection
of a session to a specified URL or a
machine in a cluster domain that
has WebQoS configured and
running.
session rejection - The decision
not to satisfy a user request.
Session rejection is performed by
an admission controller, typically
in response to heavy load on the
server. The user may come back at
a later time when the server is less
busy. The rejection may contain
special incentives for the user to
return later, such as a personalized
promotion or an electronic coupon.
shared server/cluster -Asystem
or cluster of systems that host
services and content belonging to
several businesses or business
units.
T
Threshold Policy - An SLO
defined by an IT/ISP administrator
for the purposes of monitoring and
maintaining the health and well
being of the complex as well as
keeping critical services up and
running. These SLOs are private
to the service provider and are
distinct from business SLOs which
are explicitly negotiated with a
hosting customer.
ToS byte - Type of service byte in
the IP header. In RFC1812, it is
divided into three sections: the
precedencefield (high-order 3bits),
a field that is customarily called
type of service or ToS (next 4 bits),
and a reserved bit (the low order
bit).
transparent classification - The
classification performed by
examining the attributes of a
request such as who it came from,
where it is destined, or the type of
service for which the request is
constructed. The application is
unaware that the classification has
been performed by WebQoS.
U
URL document path - The
directory path and filename of the
URL used to access the site. For
example, given the URL
http://some.system.domain.com/my
_path/index.html, the URL
document path is
/my_path/index.html
