摘要： The determination of node and/or adapter liveness in a distributed network data processing system is carried out via one messaging protocol that can be assisted by a second messaging protocol which is significantly less susceptible to delay, especially memory blocking delays encountered by daemons running on other nodes. The switching of protocols is accompanied by controlled grace periods for needed responses. This messaging protocol flexibility is also adapted for use as a mechanism for controlling the deliberate activities of node addition (birth) and node deletion (death).

摘要： A topology propagation facility is provided for maintaining a common network topology database at different nodes in a distributed computing environment. The facility generates no message traffic when the distributed computing environment is in steady state. This is accomplished by discontinuing sending of group connectivity messages during a time period of no topology change within the distributed environment. Sending of group connectivity messages is reinitiated from at least one group leader upon identification by the group leader of at least one topology change within the distributed computing environment. Group connectivity messages are forwarded from one group of nodes on a first network to another group of nodes on a second network using a node common to both groups of nodes. The networks of the distributed computing environment can comprise heterogenous networks such that the topology propagation facility presented facilitates interoperability of the networks.

摘要： A network having a plurality of nodes is reconfigured to reflect a change in topology of the network. In particular, upon receiving a reconfiguration request, each node enters a quiescent state for a predetermined period of time sufficient to allow at least one other node to also enter a quiescent state. Then, upon termination of the quiescent state, the node is reconfigured to reflect the change in the topology of the network without having to check with any other nodes of the network. In other embodiments, the predetermined period of time is sufficient to allow currently executing protocols to complete execution as well as to allow the transmission of reconfiguration requests for propagating reconfiguration in the network.
