Linux kernel settings

Different Linux® kernel settings were used to optimize performance on the WebSphere® Application Server, workload generator, and the DB2 Universal Database systems.

WebSphere Application Server Linux kernel settings
To specify the Linux kernel settings for the WebSphere Application Server, enable the use of a 1 GB JVM, and set the swappiness parameter to zero.
Linux kernel settings for the workload generator systems
Some Linux kernel settings must be permanently increased to run the driver workload.
Linux kernel settings for the DB2 Universal Database system
These are the DB2 Universal Database (UDB) Linux kernel settings.
