Processor resource allocation

[Ngoh Chean Siung]

Hi,

Is there any way to allocate the processor resource to perform a particular task in HP-UX? I think this is in OS level, right. As I know, we not able to do this in windows base, right.

How about in HP-UX? Any ideas?

regards.

do you want Process Resource Manager ? go to docs.hp.com and search for its manual - maybt this is what you are looking for, or a resource based version called Workload Manager (again, you can find the manual on docs.hp.com).

Hi,

HP UX itself don't have command for this but HP has a product called HP Process resource manager. You can use it to assign resources to specific user, specific process etc.

As mentioned by joseph you use nice/renice commands for controlling the execution of processes and you can monitor the processor utilization thr' glance/sar commands on HPUX so that effective Processor resource allocation can be done.
