appl_priority information |
Description: The priority of the agents working for this application.
Usage: You can use this element to check if applications are running with the expected priorities. Application priorities can be set by an administrator. They can be changed by the governor utility (db2gov).
The governor is used by DB2 to monitor and change the behavior of applications running against a database. This information is used to schedule applications and balance system resources.
A governor daemon collects statistics about the applications by taking snapshots. It checks these statistics against the rules governing applications running on that database. If the governor detects a rule violation, it takes the appropriate action. These rules and actions were specified by you in the governor configuration file.
If the action associated with a rule is to change an application's priority, the governor changes the priority of the agents in the partition where the violation was detected.
See the Administration Guide for more information on the governor.
