HP Global Workload Manager 7.3 and 7.3 Update 1 User Guide

1. Ensure in System Insight Manager, the gWLM CMS daemon or service (gwlmcmsd), and all
the gWLM agents (gwlmagent) are still running, as explained in the section “Setting up
gWLM (initial setup steps)” (page 21).
2. Connect to System Insight Manager by pointing your web browser to:
http://hostname:280
where hostname represents the hostname of the CMS.
3. Associate fixed policies with all workloads that you want to unmanage that are based on
nPars or vPars.
For information on setting the associated policy, refer to “Changing which policy is associated
with a workload” (page 23).
4. Wait an allocation interval for gWLM to set CPU resource allocations based on the fixed
policies.
5. Click the Shared Resource Domain tab.
6. Select the workload you want to stop managing in the workload table.
7. From the HP Matrix OE visualization menu bar, select:
Policy→Remove Associated gWLM Policy...
8. Associate policies.
Evaluate and change, if needed, the remaining workloads and their associated policies to
ensure they are appropriate, given that a workload has been removed.
9. Click OK.
Stop managing an SRD
To stop gWLM from managing an SRD and its workloads, returning resource allocation to HP-UX:
NOTE: In System Insight Manager, you must be logged in as root or have authorizations for
“All Tools” or “Matrix OE All tools.”
1. Ensure in System Insight Manager, the gWLM CMS daemon or service (gwlmcmsd), and all
the gWLM agents (gwlmagent) are still running, as explained in the section “Setting up
gWLM (initial setup steps)” (page 21).
2. Connect to System Insight Manager by pointing your web browser to:
http://hostname:280
where hostname represents the hostname of the CMS.
3. Associate fixed policies with all nPars or vPars that were in the SRD.
When gWLM stops managing an SRD, it leaves compartments based on nPars or vPars as
they were in the last allocation interval. Associating fixed policies allows you to set the sizes
exactly to what you want. (For virtual machines, gWLM sets the entitlements of the running
virtual machines to their minimums. psets and fss groups are removed in this situation, with
their processes going to the default pset or default fss group.)
For information on setting the associated policy, refer to “Changing which policy is associated
with a workload” (page 23)
4. Click the Shared Resource Domain tab.
5. Select the SRD that you want to stop managing (undeploy).
6. From the HP Matrix OE visualization menu bar, select:
Modify→Shared Resource Domain
7. Change to the Undeployed state.
8. Click OK.
