max 15-min
Maximum 15-minute sustained: data given in the Utilization Metric Summary screen of the
Insight Capacity Advisor software Profile Viewer
, the highest value in the selected time interval
that was sustained for at least 15 minutes.
metric
A specific measurement that defines a performance characteristic.

selection
In
HP Insight Capacity Advisor software
, a combination of the statistical model (such as peak or
average) used to calculate the metric and whether it is to be presented as a percentage or an
absolute value.
missing data
Data that was not collected by
HP Insight Capacity Advisor software
, perhaps because a monitored
system was down during data collection. Such data is not used in analysis, though the collection
gap may be shown in the

monitored
workload
A
that can be monitored by
HP Insight Virtualization Manager software
on HP-UX and
OpenVMS managed nodes, but which has no
associated with it. Monitored workloads
are not managed by
HP Insight Global Workload Manager software for Integrity (gWLM)
multithreading
The ability of an application and operating system to allow parallel computing by dividing
processing between multiple

nPartition
A
in a cell-based server that consists of one or more cells , and one or more I/O chassis.
Each nPartition operates independently of other nPartitions and either runs a single instance
of an operating system or is further divided into
.
See also virtual partition.
OS
Operating system.
package
A package groups application services (individual HP-UX processes) together.
See also Serviceguard package.
parked workload
A
that is not currently associated with a
. A workload becomes parked if its
system is set to “none” when it is created or later modified. A parked workload that was
previously associated with a system may have historical data associated with it from
or
HP Insight Global Workload Manager software for Integrity (gWLM)
As with any workload, the historical data will be lost if the workload is deleted.
When migrating a workload from one system to another, it may be useful to park the workload
(removing the association with the original system) until the new system becomes available.
This preserves the historical data for the workload across the migration.
partition
1.
A subset of
hardware that includes
, memory, and I/O resources on which an
operating system (OS) can be run. This type of partitioning allows a single server to run
an OS independently in each partition with isolation from other partitions.
See also nPartition, virtual partition.
peak
The highest utilization value in the selected time interval.
policy
A collection of rules and settings that control
resources managed by
Workload Manager software for Integrity (gWLM)
. For example, a policy can indicate the minimum
and maximum amount of CPU resources allowed for a workload, and a target to be achieved.
A single policy can be associated with multiple workloads.
PRM
Process Resource Manager. An HP product used to dynamically divide resource utilization
among different applications and users PRM controls the amount of resources that processes
use during peak system load.
