Application WPARs

If an application or group of applications can be started with one command of the
AIX command line interface, it is a candidate to be hosted by an application
WPAR. This command is passed as an argument to the wparexec command, that
will create an application WPAR. As soon as the passed command exits, the
workload partition is terminated.
An application partition shares the file system of the global environment. It does
not own any dedicated storage.
An application partition can run daemons. But application partitions will not run
any of the system service daemons, such as inetd, srcmstr, etc. It is not possible
to remotely log into an application partition, or remotely execute an action into an
application WPAR.
