摘要:
A data processing system, having virtual addressing capability, has a real storage manager to associate virtual storage locations with real storage by accessing page tables to determine the locations of "backed" virtual storage pages in central, expanded, or auxiliary storage. The real storage manager accepts requests to copy ranges of virtual storage from one virtual storage range to another, and, in so doing, uses the page tables to effectively perform the copying by reassigning backed pages from the source range to the target range. Having been reassigned to the target range, the backed pages are artificially aged by increasing the unreferenced interval count (UIC), so that the backed pages in the target range will be likely candidates for page stealing.

A graphical user interface may used to construct a list from pre-defined and user-defined printer values. Predefined values may be added or removed through a dialog box by selecting or deselecting values. New user-defined values may added by filling in a value in the add value dialog. An existing value may be modified by selecting a modify push-button. In response to selecting the modify push-button, a value may be edited in a modify value dialog. Adding, removing, modifying, and deleting printer values may be performed by user interaction with various push-buttons and dialog boxes.
摘要:
A method and system for capturing and controlling access to information in a data processing system is provided. The data processing system includes one or more operating systems coupled to a coupling facility. When one or more operating systems lose communication with the coupling facility, a surviving operating system captures some or all of the information in the coupling facility, including that information associated with the failed operating system(s). In order to capture the information when a system fails or at any other time, the information in the coupling facility is serialized, thereby preventing all access to the information except for those commands capturing the information. While the information is serialized, requests for the information are queued and then re-driven once serialization is released. If an operating system loses communication with the coupling facility during the creation of a dump, another operating system will continue the dump.
