Dynamic reconfiguration of CPU and WebSphere on IBM pSeries servers
Abstract
This paper studies the effects that dynamic reconfiguration (DR) has on a WebSphere workload while CPUs are dynamically added to and removed from the underlying AIX instance. DR is a new technology available in AIX 5.2. This study shows that the resource allocations for a complex and function-rich middleware system such as WebSphere can be efficiently and dynamically managed by the DR technology, without WebSphere having to explicitly accommodate for the DR features of the operating system.
