摘要:
A partitioned processing system is disclosed wherein a workload calculation is implemented for at least one partition. CPU utilization and I/O throughput information is used in calculating resource control parameters which is indicative of resource usage for the partition. The system collects and analyzes the computer system capacity data in a partition which determines a sizing metric. The system includes a manager in the computer system which issues a command to obtain throughput information of a computer system first partition, and issues a command to obtain resource utilization information of the computer system first partition. The manager then calculates a resource control parameter using the information obtained. The system includes a monitor which indicates resource allocation responsive to the resource control.
摘要:
An apparatus for providing direct data processing access in a network computing system environment. The system environment has a main storage which can be connected to one or more application servers and is in processing communication with an interface element. The interface element has at least one adapter and can be connected to one or more application user(s). One or more queues are established in the main storage that can handle data without causing interrupts in the running programs. Incoming data is received using the adapter and as data is received or modified, the status of the network computing system will be updated to reflect the new data or change. Data is then processed in the main storage after interrogating the multiple existing queues in the main storage simultaneously and forwarding them in turn to their appropriate destination or application server after a determination has been made by interrogating these queues.

A method and apparatus for error detection in a network computing system having a main storage capable of connecting to at least one application server and an interface element with at least one adapter capable of establishing processing communication with at least one application user(s). Data is transferred across the interface element to and from the main storage. The main storage includes a queuing mechanism providing a plurality of queuing components having attributes of devices to and from which data is to be transferred or received as well as information about the queuing mechanism itself. As part of the queuing component, providing a Storage-List-State Block (SLSB) having state indicators that provide state information about a plurality of buffers that make up each queue. A plurality of Error States is defined for by the SLSB Status Block. These Error States are set in the SLSB each time the interface element detects errors in the data stream. By monitoring the number of the errors for a specified time period, it can be determining as whether a session needs to be terminated or kept active.

摘要:
An apparatus for transferring data in a network computing environment having a controlling program and a main storage in processing communication with an interface element including one or more adapters. A queuing mechanism is first established in the main storage for asynchronous transmittal of data between the program and said interface element. At least one queue-set is dedicated to input data and another queue-set to output data in the queuing mechanism. Queuing priorities both for said input and output queue-sets are then determined according to importance of data to be processed or transferred or other internal dependencies and a queue-description record is established by passing a QDIO queue command. From this the priority and number of the output queue are provided by order in which the order specified in the queue descriptor record relative to any other output queues described in that record. Data is then transferred and received according to the queuing priority by interrogating multiple queues in the mechanism simultaneously and determining appropriate location to which data has to be stored to or transferred from.

An application server running an SNA application includes a TN3270 server. Performance of the application server is enhanced by relocating away from the application server the conversion of data between ASCII and EBCDIC, as well as command scanning and packaging. The relocating can take the form of, for example, a browser plug-in at the client or elsewhere. In addition, the client is able to carry on communications with the application server over a standard port by logically situating a communication server between the client and the application server. The client communicates with the communication server over the standard port, while the communication server forwards the communications to the application server over a non-standard port.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for exchanging data in a network computing system having a main storage capable of connecting to at least one application server and an interface element with at least one adapter capable of establishing processing communication with at least one application user(s). A state change signalling protocol is used for transfer of data between the main storage and said adapter. In addition a queuing mechanism is established in the main storage having a plurality of queues each with a plurality of buffers. Some of these queues are dedicated to be input and others as output queues. By applying the protocol each input and output data buffer is associated with each of the active input and output queues. In this manner the input and output buffers are managed by placing the buffers into various states which are maintained in a special location that is set aside and is associated with each buffer. After complete transmission of data, the state of each such buffer is changed in order to make it buffer available for reuse.
摘要:
A method and an apparatus for timely and accurate processing of data in a network computing environment controlled by a running program and having a queuing mechanism established in a main storage. The main storage is in processing communication with an interface element having one or more adapters. At least one set of queues in the queuing mechanism is designated for input and another set for output. A signal adapter instruction can be issued to provide initiative to check content of any or all queues in the mechanism. With the help of the signal adapter an initiate-output can be specified when appropriate and the associated adapter can then asynchronously process the input or the output queues. A synchronize option is also available to signal the associated data queues to update all entries in order to render them current as observed by both the adapter and the controlling running program.
