Tuning HP-UX systems

This topic describes how to tune the HP-UX operating system to optimize the performance of your WebSphere Application Server. Because the HP-UX operating system is not a WebSphere Application Server product, be aware that it can change and results vary

Before you begin

On the HP-UX operating system, WebSphere Application Server runs on the Java virtual machine (JVM), which is based on the technology of Sun HotSpot JVM. Properly tuning this JVM significantly affects WebSphere Application Server performance by fully utilizing its performance optimizing characteristics. See the Tuning Java virtual machines topic for details on setting up the JVM on the HP-UX system. It is also important to change some parameters that are specific to the HP-UX operating system to prevent WebSphere Application Server from being deprived of resources.

About this task

When you have a performance concern, check the operating system settings to determine if they are appropriate for your application.

Procedure

Results

This tuning procedure improves performance of WebSphere Application Server on the HP-UX operating system.

What to do next

After tuning your operating system for performance, consult the other tuning topics for various tuning tips.
