摘要:
A network switch, in response to receipt from a source station of a Layer 2 reservation request, establishes a reservation for capacity of an ingress queue of the network switch for a data flow of the source station. In response to a queue overrun condition on the ingress queue of the network switch while the reservation is active, the network switch preserves data frames in the data flow of the source station transmitted pursuant to the reservation and discards other data frames.
摘要:
A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for managing a software partition in logical partitioned data processing system. A virtual root process is created for the software partition, wherein the virtual root process functions as a root process for the software partition. The set of child processes is re-parented to the virtual root process in response to termination of a process having a set of child processes.

摘要:
An approach is provided in which a data traffic module executing on a network interface card receives a data packet initiated by a first virtual machine with a destination at a second virtual machine. The data traffic module identifies one or more physical path translations corresponding to a logical connectivity that is independent of physical topology constraints of a physical network. In turn, the data traffic module encapsulates the data packet with the one or more physical path translations and sends the encapsulated data packet to the second virtual machine over the physical network.

According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an approach is provided in which a policy module receives data that is initiated by a first virtual machine and has a destination at a second virtual machine. The policy module selects a policy that corresponds to sending the data from the first virtual machine to the second virtual machine. The policy includes one or more logical references to one or more virtual networks, and does not include a physical reference to a physical entity located on a physical network. In turn, the policy module encapsulates the data with a physical path translation that is based upon the selected policy, and sends the encapsulated data over the physical network to a second policy module that corresponds to the second virtual machine.

In a computer system divided into multiple separate workload partitions, wherein at least one of the partitions contains multiple applications, and a loopback interface is made available to each partition, a method is provided for routing packets from one application to another application. In one embodiment of the invention, each packet to be routed from one application to another application in the same home partition comprises a first packet, and all other packets comprise second packets. The method comprises the steps of assigning the same pre-specified IP address to each of the first packets, and routing each of the first packets from its home partition to a loopback interface at the IP network processing layer. The method further includes marking the first packets to identify the home partition of each first packet, and directing the marked first packets to a mechanism configured to deliver each first packet only to its home partition, in response to the markings. Each second packet is assigned the IP address of its intended destination, and routed thereto over the loopback interface.
摘要:
A method, system and computer program product for transitioning network traffic between logical partitions in one or more data processing systems are disclosed. The method includes defining a plurality of logical partitions with respect to one or more processing units of one or more data processing systems and dynamically reallocating resources from a second partition to a first partition among the plurality of logical partitions. Packets awaiting processing are transferred from the second partition to the first partition and processed on the first partition.
摘要:
A method, system, and program are provided for managing a response to an email by a hidden email recipient. A hidden recipient manager detects a request to respond to an electronic communication by a hidden recipient of that electronic communication from among a plurality of recipients of the electronic communication. The hidden recipient detects whether the request to respond is addressed to at least one recipient other than a sender of the electronic communication. If the request to respond is addressed to at least one recipient other than a sender of the electronic communication, then the hidden recipient manager warns the hidden recipient that the request to respond is addressed to at least one recipient who is unaware of the recipient of the electronic communication by the hidden recipient.
摘要:
In a first aspect, a first method is provided for creating a media access control (MAC) address for a device. The first method includes the steps of (1) obtaining one or more identifiers; (2) obtaining a first MAC address; and (3) creating at least a second MAC address based on the one or more identifiers and the first MAC address. Numerous other aspects are provided.
