Resource management based on partitions

Question

Hi Guys,&nbsp;
I have a question regarding resource management in a BIGIP LTM environment:
With Cisco ACE I had the ability of allocating different resources (SSL bandwidth, throughput, etc) to the single contexts in which different customers reside.&nbsp;
Now I’m looking for something similar for the partitions on the F5 LTM, mainly for throughput rates but controlling SSL TPS would be nice as well. &nbsp;
Is there any chance to achieve this? &nbsp;
Regards,
Otto&nbsp;

Might you be looking for vCMP perhaps? vCMP is F5's hypervisor that allows you to configure multiple BIG-IP guests on a single vCMP-capable appliance or VIPRION, with control over resource allocation to each. Administrative "partitions" (not the same as vCMP) allow you to segregate BIG-IP administrative contexts (such as who can administer which elements of a BIG-IP configuration) but does not provide control over throughput and resource consumption.&nbsp;
For more info on vCMP:
