HP Integrity Essentials Global Workload Manager: Workload Management for HP Integrity Virtual Machines

Note also that gWLM provides helpful monitoring tools from the gWLM CLI:

• /opt/gwlm/bin/gwlm monitor

Displays policy, workload, and SRD statistics.

• /opt/gwlm/bin/gwlmreport

Provides “topborrowers” and “resourceaudit” reports and more.

Figure 1 - Historical Data Report for Virtual Machine

The horizontal red line indicates the maximum amount of cores that this workload can consume,

which corresponds to its virtual machine (compartment) configuration of 2 vCPUs. The horizontal

green line indicates the minimum amount of cores that must be allocated at all times, which is about

0.1 for the workload or 0.05 cores for each vCPU configured for that workload. The dark blue line

shows the percentage (% Utilization, measured on the vertical axis on the right of the graph) of the

workload’s allocated cores being used at any given time. The lighter blue line tracks the actual

amount of cores consumed. The tan and orange lines show, respectively, the amount of cores the

workload actually has (size) at any given time and the amount gWLM allocated to it after arbitrating

resource requests from the policies of all the workloads in the SRD. For compartments operating in

managed mode (and therefore, all virtual machine workloads), these lines converge as shown in this
