14. IBM Sub-Capacity Software Pricing Favors
Virtualization On Power Systems
How many cores must be licensed for each software product?
On Power Systems:
Determine the lesser of virtual processor or total physical cores in
each shared processor pool
− Capped partitions may further reduce total virtual processor per pool
Add the total pools to determine the number of cores that have to be
licensed
Oracle sub-capacity pricing NOT available for UltraSPARC T Series
servers when using Logical Domains!
Oracle does not recognize Logical Domains for sub capacity pricing
Must license each processor core on physical server regardless of
domain configuration

20. Response Time Management Using Service
Policies Assures Best Service
Define service level goals
with service policies
Service policies specify the
response time goals and
the relative importance of
the service policy relative to
other service policies
Application requests are
mapped to service policies
based on rules that classify,
prioritize, and intelligently
route requests to ensure
that service policies are met Service Policies define the relative importance
and response time goals of application services

In an environment with multiple applications experiencing
different workloads an ideal system would exhibit the
following properties:
Maximize throughput
Minimize response time
Capable of utilizing all available system resources with
minimum overhead
Equitable resource sharing
− Requests with same priority should have similar throughput and
