Compatibility with Outside CPU / System Control

gWLM expects to have complete control of the CPUs available on a system. Various user actions can negatively affect gWLM’s management of a system. For example:

Do not manually adjust CPU counts on systems where gWLM is running. Do not manually adjust Temporary Instant Capacity resources (that is, do not start/stop TiCAP CPUs), Instant Capacity resources, virtual machines, vpars (including changes in CPU binding), or npars.
Do not manually adjust entitlements for virtual machines. Also, do not change a virtual machine’s number of virtual CPUs while gWLM is managing the virtual machine.
Do not create or delete a pset using psrset on a system where gWLM is managing pset compartments.
Do not move memory from one vpar to another using vparmodify.
Do not perform online cell operations using parolrad.

If you do need to perform any of the above manual adjustments, undeploy the SRD containing the systems that you want to adjust, make your adjustments, then re-create the SRD.
