7.6.2 Description<br />

EWLM is an implementation of policy-based per<strong>for</strong>mance management. EWLM Correlator<br />

Support is <strong>for</strong> server side only and it is only <strong>for</strong> TCP/IP. It is implemented with PTF UK03835<br />

<strong>for</strong> APAR PQ91509 <strong>for</strong> <strong>DB2</strong> V8, and it allows you to do per<strong>for</strong>mance measurement using<br />

ARM instrumentation. PTF UK03058 <strong>for</strong> APAR PQ99707 is also recommended <strong>for</strong><br />

per<strong>for</strong>mance improvement <strong>for</strong> JCC clients. PTF UA15189 <strong>for</strong> APARs OA07196 and PTF<br />

UA15456 <strong>for</strong> APAR OA07356 implement this function from the z/<strong>OS</strong> side. APAR OA12005<br />

(currently open) <strong>for</strong> z/<strong>OS</strong> 1.6 and z/<strong>OS</strong> 1.7 is also recommended <strong>for</strong> per<strong>for</strong>mance<br />

improvements.<br />

The scope of management is a set of servers that you logically group into what is called an<br />

EWLM management domain. The set of servers included in the management domain have<br />

some type of relationship; <strong>for</strong> example, z/<strong>OS</strong> server with <strong>DB2</strong> V8, AIX server with WAS. See<br />

EWLM Domain<br />

There is a management focal point <strong>for</strong> each EWLM management domain, called the EWLM<br />

domain manager. The domain manager coordinates policy actions across the servers, tracks<br />

the state of those servers, and accumulates per<strong>for</strong>mance statistics on behalf of the domain.<br />

On each server (operating system) instance in the management domain there is a thin layer<br />

of EWLM logic installed called the EWLM managed server. The managed server layer<br />

understands each of the supported operating systems, gathering resource usage and delay<br />

statistics known to the operating system.<br />
