Determining Where to Implement a Consumer Group

While PeopleTools delivers a set of predefined resource groups that you can map to Oracle consumer groups, you only need to create consumer groups for the resource groups where you need to introduce control of system resource usage.

For example, if COBOL and PeopleSoft Analytic Calculation Engine processing are the only areas of your PeopleSoft system that cause unwanted resource usage, then you only need to create Oracle consumer groups to map to ANALYTIC SERVER and COBOL PeopleSoft resource groups.
