摘要:
A facility is provided for processing to distinguish between a full conventional (or total system) quiesce request within a logically partitioned computer system, which requires all processors of the computer system to remain quiesced for the duration of the quiesce-related operation, and a new early-release conventional quiesce request, which is associated with fast-quiesce request utilization. In accordance with the facility, once all processors have quiesced responsive to a pending quiesce request sequence, the processors are allowed to block early-release conventional quiesce interrupts and to continue processing if there is no total system quiesce request in the pending quiesce request sequence.
