Can HP-UX assign memory to a specific program?

Hi,

Thanks for this great forum! Now onto my question :)

Is it possible for HP-UX to assign memory to a specific program? For exmaple, assign a partition of 1 MB to a dedicated program? I heard that that is possible with RTE-A operating system. If yes, how do I do it?

Thanks!

Hello, you can use PRM (WLM) for this.

It creates memory groups and assigns programs according to your setting to these groups. You define the properties of each group. How much memory minimum/maximum it can take and which memory groups are more important. It's a workload management tool.

You can buy Process resource manager (PRM) which will give you this ability.
You can also use it to assign other resources like CPU and disk.
