4 procs, can I slice ?

if the system pegs at 100%, can I reserve .2cpu to allow for logins and such? the oracle rman/other activities take up some resources on occassion ... 3.8 procs for the system and .2 reserved?

I'm not sure how to tackle this issue ... is this a good use for WLM?

any thoughts?

That is a perfect use for WLM.
