CMMA is gone, didn't work right and support was pulled. VMRM does not have proper feedback and is more likely to crash your linux server than help CPUPLUGD - never seen any measured value. Focus on understanding the storage requirements. One of the presentations at the VMWorkshop last week was "Understanding LInux Storage"....

Hello list, It's been a few years since I looked at these memory management tools, and back then there were some concerns about the production readiness of CMM or CMMA for prod environments. It looks like CPUPLUGD can also do memory ballooning via CMM? The problem I'm trying to solve is to use ZVM memory most efficiently for our zLinux guests running lots of java processes with variable heap sizes. I am not much concerned about dynamically changing the number of processors assigned. Is there a consensus on the "best" tool for that? Stability is probably be the foremost concern. This will be implemented in SLES 10 SP4 and SLES 11 SP2 running under ZVM 5.4 environment, and migrating to ZVM 6.2 later this year. Any advice on what I should focus on first would be appreciated.
