-Table 1 – Command Line Options Available When Sending a Policy to the Host
-
-======================================= ======================================
-**Command Line Option** **Description**
-======================================= ======================================
-``--vm-name {name of guest vm}`` | Allows the user to change the virtual machine name passed
- | down to the host application using the power policy. The
- | default is ubuntu2.
-``--vcpu-list {list vm cores}`` | A comma-separated list of cores in the VM that the user
- | wants the host application to monitor. The list of cores
- | in any vm starts at zero, and the host application maps
- | these to the physical cores once the policy passes down
- | to the host. Valid syntax includes individual cores
- | 2,3,4, a range of cores 2-4, or a combination of both
- | 1,3,5-7.
-``--busy-hours {list of busy hours}`` | A comma-separated list of hours in which to set the core
- | frequency to the maximum. Valid syntax includes
- | individual hours 2,3,4, a range of hours 2-4, or a
- | combination of both 1,3,5-7. Valid hour values are 0 to 23.
-``--quiet-hours {list of quiet hours}`` | A comma-separated list of hours in which to set the core
- | frequency to minimum. Valid syntax includes individual
- | hours 2,3,4, a range of hours 2-4, or a combination of
- | both 1,3,5-7. Valid hour values are 0 to 23.
-``--policy {policy type}`` | The type of policy. This can be one of the following values:
-
- - | TRAFFIC Based on incoming traffic rates on the NIC.
-
- - | TIME - Uses a busy/quiet hours policy.
-
- - | BRANCH_RATIO - Uses branch ratio counters to determine
- | core busyness.
-
- - | WORKLOAD - Sets the frequency to low, medium or high
- | based on the received policy setting.
-
- | **Note**: Not all policy types need all parameters. For
- | example, BRANCH_RATIO only needs the vcpu-list
- | parameter.
