摘要:
In a multiprocessor arranged in accordance with either NUMA or UMA in which a plurality of processor nodes containing a plurality of processor units are coupled to each other via a network, a cache snoop operation executed in connection with a memory access operation is performed at two stages, namely, local snoop operation executed within a node, and global snoop operation among nodes. Before executing the local snoop operation, an ACTV command for specifying only an RAS of a memory is issued to a target node having a memory to be accessed, and the memory access is activated in advance. A CAS of a memory is additionally specified and a memory access is newly executed after the ACTV command has been issued and then a memory access command has been issued. When there is such a possibility that a memory to be accessed is cached in a processor node except for a source node, this memory access command is issued to be distributed to all nodes so as to execute the global snoop operation. On the other hand, when there is no possibility that the memory to be accessed is cached, this memory access command is transferred only to the target node in yan one-to-one correspondence.

A method of controlling a virtual machine of a computer, the computer comprising: a physical machine comprising an I/O adapter having a physical function that creates a virtual function; a virtualization unit that provides computer resources of the physical machine to the virtual machine; and an OS that is executed on the virtual machine, the virtualization unit creating a virtual machine to which the virtual function is assigned, the virtual machine running the OS thereon, the method comprising: a first step of detecting, by the virtualization unit, a state change of the I/O adapter; a second step of identifying, by the virtualization unit, when a state of the I/O adapter becomes a predetermined state, the virtual machine to which the virtual function is assigned; and a third step of notifying, by the virtualization unit, the OS running on the identified virtual machine of the state of the I/O adapter.
摘要:
A failure factor can be promptly carved up by effectively prioritizing the ports to which MEPs are assigned in a condition where the maximum number of MEPs is limited. A network monitoring server monitors a network having plural switch devices. The plural switch devices each have a communication confirmation function using transmission and reception of a monitoring frame between ports. An upper limit is set to the number of ports to which maintenance end points (MEPs) are assignable among the respective ports of the plural switch devices. The network monitoring server calculates, for each of the plural switch devices, a monitoring priority corresponding to the probability of failures of a device connected to a network path including the port or the port, and generates data for displaying the calculated monitoring priority of each port in association with each port.

To make it possible to take over an IO configuration that is assigned to logical partitions in reallocation of the logical partitions, and to make an IO access work normally. A computer system has a server having an IO bridge, a switch that has a first IO bridge for connecting with the IO bridge of the server through a bus and plural second IO bridges for connecting to plural IO devices through a bus, and bus number assignment management means for fixedly assigning mutually different PCI bus numbers to the plural second IO bridges.
