A method, system, and computer program product for maintaining reliability in a computer system. In an example embodiment, the method includes managing workloads on a first processor with a first processor architecture by an agent process executing on a second processor with a second processor architecture. The method proceeds by activating redundant computation on the second processor by the agent process. The method continues by performing a same computation from a workload of the workloads at least twice. Finally, the method includes comparing results of the same computation. In this embodiment the first processor is coupled the second processor by a network, and the first processor architecture and second processor architecture are different architectures.
