gWLM allows you to centrally define resource-sharing policies that you can use across multiple HP servers. Using these policies can increase system utilization and facilitate controlled sharing of system resources. In addition, gWLM provides both real-time and historical monitoring of the resource allocation.

The benefits of using gWLM include:

  • Better use of existing server capacity

    Typically, servers are set up with a single workload and ample reserve capacity to handle the peak demand of that workload. gWLM allows you to combine multiple workloads with differing demand patterns on a single server and make use of the idle capacity.

  • Confidence that mission-critical workloads get the required resources

    Even with multiple workloads on a server, you can ensure your mission-critical workload gets the resources it needs. gWLM automatically adjusts resource allocation, making it easy to share resources when they are plentiful, and to dedicate resources to workloads during spikes in resource demand.

  • Reduced system administration costs

    With gWLM, you can combine more workloads on fewer servers, thereby reducing administration costs.
