摘要:
A hypervisor is operated while an I/O device is not controlled by the hypervisor performs a process operation. A result of the process of the I/O device which is being concurrently operated is recorded to be capable of being reflected to the operation of the hypervisor. Therefore, a hypervisor which assigns a computer including an I/O control device controlling an I/O device, a main storage device, and a CPU as resources to each of one or more logical partitions (LPAR) and performs control, and a logging circuit recording data transmission from the I/O device to the main storage device, which is uncontrolled by the hypervisor, in response to an instruction from the hypervisor, are provided. It is possible to shorten a halt time period of an LPAR.

In a system including a plurality of physical machines to execute virtual machines (VM1, VM2), migration virtual machine information and definition information are saved in a physical machine executing a virtual machine (VM1) to be migrated and a storage of a physical machine as a migration destination. During the migration of the virtual machine, machine identification information of a migration partner, unique information assigned to the virtual machine, and information indicating whether the physical machine executing the processing is a migration-source or migration-destination physical machine are saved in a migration information storage area. A migration recovery section examines information stored in a definition information storage area and a migration information storage area to determine a recovery procedure to restore the virtual machine.

The computer system has a plurality of physical server devices, a plurality of physical storage devices, and a management server device, and when migrating at least one of a plurality of first virtual server devices to another physical server device, the management server device compares at least one physical server device in which the plurality of first virtual server devices are disposed after the migration, with at least one physical server device in which a plurality of second virtual server devices are disposed, to calculate a first evaluation value, and also compares at least one physical server device in which the plurality of first virtual server devices are disposed after the migration, with at least one physical server device in which a plurality of third virtual server devices are disposed, to calculate a second evaluation value. Based on the first evaluation value and the second evaluation value, the management server device issues an instruction to migrate the first virtual storage device to the other physical storage device.
摘要:
To determine, when a virtual machine is executed by an arbitrary machine, whether the virtual machine can access computer resources required for the virtual machine, provided is a method of checking a possibility of executing a virtual machine including a first physical computer for executing a first virtual machine and a second physical computer capable of executing a virtual machine. The method includes the steps of: acquiring information on first logical resources; acquiring setting information set to a adaptor of the first physical computer so that the first virtual machine accesses the first logical resources; listing second logical resources accessible when the first virtual machine is executed by the second physical computer by setting the setting information to a adaptor of the second physical computer; and determining whether the first virtual machine can be executed by the second physical computer by comparing the first and second logical resources.
摘要:
A computer system including a management computer for managing the entire system, an integral apparatus, and a high-level connecting device for connecting the management computer and the integral apparatus is designed so that the management computer retains integral apparatus internal configuration information, configuration information about an integral apparatus to be introduced, that indicates the configuration of the integral apparatus that may possibly be introduced to the system, and lifetime information indicating lifetime of the integral apparatus; obtains connectivity guarantee information indicating whether connectivity between the computer and the storage apparatus is guaranteed or not; selects an integral apparatus to be removed from the system by referring to the lifetime information; selects an integral apparatus to be introduced to the system by referring to the integral apparatus internal configuration information, the configuration information about the integral apparatus to be introduced, and the connectivity guarantee information.

A manager transmits an I/O bus signal to an I/O bus manager in a computer at a predetermined point of time to inform the I/O bus manager of occurrence of an I/O bus fault. The I/O bus manager initializes an I/O bus and then informs a CPU in the computer of the I/O bus fault as an interruption to be processed by an OS operated by the CPU, whereby the OS can acquire the fault information after the interruption even in the case where an I/O bus fault occurs.
摘要:
The parallelism of execution of processes in a memory shared multi-processor is enhanced. Each of a plurality of processors is provided with a run queue for holding executable processes, and a watch process for each processor to watch the execution status of its own to notify the rebuilding of the run queue to other processor and a rebuild step for rebuilding the run queue in response to the notice are stored in a shared memory as a program.
摘要:
In a plural computer system executing a virtual computer, an exterior storage volume may receive unjustly multiple access, and contents of the volume may be destroyed. Provided are: a switch coupling a virtual computer and I/O, a virtual computer managing unit coupled to a computer and the switch, and a determination unit determining a login acceptance/rejection of a virtual computer and I/O. The virtual computer possesses a virtual HBA, and upon receiving a login inquiry to the I/O from a certain virtual computer, a determination unit compares an identifier allocated to the certain virtual computer with an identifier allocated to another virtual computer to be executed on a physical computer different from the physical computer on which the certain virtual computer is executed, and determines login acceptance/rejection. Accordingly, an access control to the I/O is performed.
