Abstract:
A method and data processing system for providing a preload imaging process that is self-healing. The state information of a single or multi-threaded preload environment is autonomically recognized and stored in a log file along with the corresponding file images that are being preloaded. The log tracks the image files and related state information for a plurality of simultaneously executing (preloading) threads. When a crash occurs during the preload process, the log information is dynamically analyzed to determine a safe point within the respective threads to resume the preload operation. The preload process is then autonomically resumed from the safe location without necessarily having to restart the entire process.
