Deprecated feature: The partitioning facility (WPF) feature is deprecated. You can configure partitioning with WebSphere eXtreme Scale.


Partition grouping programming

In the getPartitions method of partition stateless session bean (PSSB), you assign the same partition alias to multiple partitions, which creates partition group context for a set of partitions.

In the following sample (WPFPartitionGroupingSample.ear), the number of partition groups is one half (1/2) of the number of partitions. Each partition group contains two partitions.

public PartitionDefinition[] getPartitions() {
        try {
          numOfAlias=Math.round(numOfPartitions/2.0f);
            partitionAlias= new String[numOfAlias];
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
……
        }
        PartitionDefinition[] rc = new PartitionDefinition[numOfPartitions];
        for (int i = 1; i
<= numOfPartitions; ++i) {
            rc[i - 1] = ivManager.createPartitionDefinition(PartitionGrouping.PARTITION_PREFIX + padZeroToString(i + "", 6));
            int k= Math.round((i-1)/2.0f-0.1f)+1; 
                        rc[i-1].setPartitionAlias(PartitionGrouping.PARTITION_ALIAS + padZeroToString(k + "", 6));
        }
    } 


Partition alias runtime

WPFPartitionGroupingSample.ear contains source code. D_WPFPartitionGroupingSample.ear is a deployed ear.

Both are in the directory of [WAS_HOME]/profiles/[PROFILE]/installableApps. Install D_WPFPartitionGroupingSample.ear. Go to the command line and change directories to c:\XD60_install><bin>. Then, type the following command:

launchClient D_WPFPartitionGroupingSample.ear -CCBootstrapPort=9813

The result is the following code:

PartionAlias Context Routing Sample has 10 partitions
PartionAlias Context Routing Sample has 5 alias
Partition alias groups different partitions and router does WLM for each alias t
hat has more than 1 partitions.
This sample shows that alias context will be routed into 2 different (even and o
dd) partitions:
