Workload Groups overview updates
Workload Groups overview updatesCOMMON Europe
油
1) Power systems are increasingly virtualized, but IBM i currently lacks a way to control workloads on a system and cap specific workloads to prevent overrunning system capacity.
2) Workload groups would allow users to set the amount of processing capacity for a workload, capping it to a specified number of processors. This provides workload control and ensures unstable jobs do not impact performance.
3) Workload groups also help control licensing costs by allowing products to be licensed for less cores than the partition contains and enforcing that product is limited to the licensed number of cores.What's New in WebSphere Application Server
