Meeting Performance Goals With the HP-UX Workload Manager

Overview The HP-UX Workload Manager helps workloads meet user-specified performance goals by dynamically adjusting their access to resources such as CPU. The paper implemented this workload manager as a part of a feedback control system, using existing resource control and performance instrumentation infrastructure. Workload managers can be classified in to two categories. An entitlement-based manager allocates resources based on a specification of resource entitlements. Goal-based workload managers adjust the resources allocated to a workload, based on a specification of performance goals. Entitlement-based and goal-based workload managers have been supported in some commercial and experimental systems.
