Relocation Policies

Use this page to view a list of WPAR relocation policies. Relocation policies allow WPARs to be automatically relocated from one system to another if CPU or memory utilization thresholds are exceeded in the global AIX® system. From this page, you can create a new relocation policy, view or edit the properties of an existing policy, or delete a policy. You can also view details of your policies and any relocation domains to which they are associated.
