Is there a way to force a maximum CPU% utilisation for a specific task? Please correct me if I'm wrong here, but it is my understanding that WLM only really starts 'doing it's stuff' when the system as a whole is heavily loaded. For example: - If my system is running at 80%, and a new incoming task wants 50% CPU, then it is allowed to run, but it only gets a maximum of 20% (obviously), and WLM starts switching task dispatch priorities around to try and maintain the service levels defined in the policy. - On the other hand, if the system is only 20% busy and the 50%-usage task comes along, then it is allowed to run and WLM just lets it happen
What I want to do is to limit specific tasks to a maximum CPU% value no matter what the overall loading is.
