Perhaps
the best method for managing resource assignment is to use the Galaxy
APIs to write your own resource management routines. This allows
you to base your decisions for resource management on your own criteria
and application environment. The same push-model restriction described
in
Intermodal Reassignment still exists, however,
so your routines need to be Galaxy aware, possibly using shared
memory to coordinate their operations.
$CPU_TRANSITION[W] is an OpenVMS system service available
to manage CPUs. $CPU_TRANSITION[W] changes the current processing
state of a CPU in the configure set of the current system or an
unassigned CPU in an OpenVMS Galaxy configuration.
