Configure resource preference

Resource preference is configured in the application profile. The following steps describe configuration using the Platform Management Console (PMC). To configure a resource preference manually, set the appropriate attributes in the application profile as described in the resource preference feature reference.

  1. In the PMC, click Symphony Workload > Configure Applications.

    The Applications page displays.

  2. Select the application you want to modify.

    The Application Profile page displays.

  3. Expand the Resource and Data Aware Scheduling section. In the Scheduling Affinity dropdown list, select Resource Aware.
  4. Expand the Session Type Definition section. In the Resource Preference textbox, enter the host attribute(s) that you want to include in the preference expression.
  5. In the Default Resource Attribute Value textbox, enter a value that will be substituted by the middleware if the preferred host attribute value is not available.
  6. Click Save to apply your changes.

    Symphony reregisters the application for the changes to take effect.
