摘要： The number of instances of an application running in a computing environment are controlled by monitoring the current load on the application, and altering the current number of instances of the application based on results of the monitoring. The load may be monitored by monitoring the current number of instances of the application running in the computing environment. Where a maximum, minimum and/or initial number on startup, of instances of the application are specified, the altering is done based on comparing the current number to one or more of the specified numbers of instances.

摘要： Resources are checkpointed in order to save the state of the resources. The resources can then be brought back to the same running state, during a restart procedure, by making use of the saved state. The determination of when to take a checkpoint or when to restart a resource is made by an entity, such as a cluster manager, external to the entity initiating or taking the checkpoint or performing the restart. The decision to checkpoint/restart a resource is provided by the cluster manager to a resource manager associated with the resource. This communication is facilitated by interfaces to the cluster manager provided by the resource manager.

摘要： A method (and structure) in a computer network of controlling the admittance of requests to at least one processing component, includes differentiating the type of received requests based on the message content in each request. Each request is admitted only if the differentiated type meets at least one criterion for admission.

摘要： Power and redundancy management policies are applied individually to the tiers of redundant servers of an application service such that power is reduced while maintaining a high level of system availability. Servers which are determined to be relatively inactive are moved to a free pool. Certain servers of the free pool are maintained in a hot standby state, while others are powered-off or set to operate in a low power mode. During times of high load, the servers in the hot standby state can be provisioned quickly into the application service.

摘要： Techniques for use in accordance with application performance decomposition are provided which take advantage of the communications protocol used to carry a transaction between application components in a distributed computing network. Specifically, the invention extends the communications protocol by embedding data, such as timestamp and duration measurement data, in the protocol itself, rather than extending or altering the application or transaction data carried by the protocol as in existing approaches. Thus, the invention provides natural correlation of interactions of distributed application components on such transactions without modification to the application or transaction data. Because the correlation is performed in-line with the application component interactions, minimal data management overhead is required, and correlated performance decomposition is made possible in real-time for the transaction. Furthermore, subsequent processing stages of the distributed application can interpret the communications protocol to glean processing durations of previous stages in order to make decisions regarding treatment of the transaction.
