Adding a new compartment or GiCAP group member to an SRD
If you:
•
Have added an npar, a vpar, or a virtual machine to your system and want to add it to an
SRD,
•
Have added a Global Instant Capacity (GiCAP) group member and want to add it to an
SRD, or
•
Want to create psets or fss groups in a host already in an SRD
You can use the gWLM wizard to accomplish those tasks. To start the wizard, select from the
HP SIM menu bar:
Tools
→Virtualization Manager...
and then click the Shared Resource Domain tab. From the VSE Management menu bar, select:
Create
→Shared Resource Domain
Step 1 in the wizard allows you to add npars, vpars, and GiCAP group members. Step 3 allows
you to create psets or fss groups, as well as manage existing virtual machines.
Stop managing a workload
When you stop managing a workload:
•
gWLM stops managing resources for the workload
•
The workload’s definition is removed from the SRD, although it remains available for placing
in another SRD
NOTE:
When gWLM stops managing npar-based or vpar-based workloads, it leaves the npars
or vpars with the number of cores they had in the last allocation interval. For this reason, in Step
3 below, you associate fixed policies with the workloads based on these types of compartments.
You must stop a virtual machine before you stop managing it with gWLM. When gWLM stops
managing a virtual machine, it sets the entitlement of the running virtual machine to its minimum.
For psets and fss groups, gWLM removes the pset or fss group and moves the processes from
that compartment to the default compartment.
To stop managing workloads in an SRD:
