Reserve or release resources for a PLM group
You can change the PLM group limits by reserving or releasing resources for and
from a partition group. The syntax is:
xlplm -R { -c Amount | -m Amount } [-g Group] [Instance]
You can only specify a resource managed by the PLM server instance, that is, if
the PLM server is not managing memory, you cannot ask to reserve or release
memory resources.
List and query the running PLM server instances
There are two command forms to query PLM: -Q and -T. The former queries PLM
instances; the latter shows the PLM default tunables. The syntaxes of the two
command forms are:
xlplm -Q [ -v ] [ -r] [ -f plm_instance]
(The -v switch shows the current tunable values.)
and
xlplm -T [ -r ]
In both cases, the -r flag puts the output in a colon-separated raw format suitable
for parsing.
