8.4 AIX Workload Management feature
It is easy to partition work across a System p machine by creating a new LPAR for each application, and using virtualization or PLM to assign appropriate resources to each. However, this coarse granularity may not be desired, especially when running many smaller well-tuned and efficient applications. Some customers may prefer to deploy several appservers into a single LPAR, and might still want to apply different priorities and resources to the different applications.
This section discusses the Workload Management feature in AIX, which is different to the Workload Management features of WebSphere. AIX Workload Management can manage a WebSphere service as a Java process, where different applications execute in separate appservers' JVMs sharing one LPAR.
