Supported installations
A large component of WebLogicTK is the white paper Using HP-UX
Workload Manager with BEA WebLogic. This paper illustrates how to
manage a variety of WebLogic workloads. This white paper was written
using the following packages:
• HP-UX WLM Version A.02.02 on HP-UX 11i v1 (B.11.11)
Processor sets (PSETs), which are available starting in
HP-UX 11i v1, are used as workload containers.
• BEA WebLogic Server 7.0, BEA WebLogic Server 8.1
The tools discussed in this document work with the latest release of
WLM (A.03.02).
Why use WLM with BEA WebLogic?
Using WLM with WebLogic you can move cores to or from WebLogic
instances as needed to maintain acceptable performance. By managing
the instances’ CPU resources, the instances will tend to use less net CPU
resources over time. You can then use the additional CPU resources for
other computing tasks.
