摘要:
A first logical partition in a first processing complex of a server cluster is operated in an active mode and a second logical partition in the processing complex is operated in a standby mode. Upon detection of a failure in a second processing complex of the server cluster. the standby mode logical partition in the first processing complex is activated to an active mode. In one embodiment, partition resources are transferred from an active mode logical partition to the logical partition activated from standby mode. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要:
A first logical partition in a first processing complex of a server cluster is operated at a first level of a software code. Software code in a second logical partition in the same processing complex is updated to a second level. Processing operations are assumed by the second logical partition operating at the second level of software code. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
A first logical partition in a first processing complex of a server cluster is operated at a first level of a software code. Software code in a second logical partition in the same processing complex is changed to a second level. Processing operations are transferred from the first logical partition in the first processing complex to a third logical partition in a second processing complex of the server cluster. In another aspect, the transferring of processing operations includes quiescing the first logical partition to cause a failover of processing operations from the first logical partition in the first processing complex, to the third logical partition in the second processing complex. In yet another aspect, a failback operation is performed and a first portion of the processing operations are transferred from the third logical partition in the second processing complex, to the second logical partition in the first processing complex. In still another aspect, a second portion of the processing operations may be transferred from the third logical partition in the second processing complex, to the second logical partition in the first processing complex of the server cluster. In one example, the transferring of the second portion of processing operations includes quiescing the third logical partition to cause a failover of processing operations from the third logical partition in the second processing complex, to the second logical partition in the first processing complex. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
Provided are a system and article of manufacture for dumping data in processing systems to a shared storage. A plurality of processing systems receive a signal indicating an event. Each of the processing systems write data used by the processing system to a shared storage device in response to receiving the signal, wherein each processing system writes the data to the shared storage device.

摘要:
Provided are a method, system and article of manufacture, wherein a request to access data is received from a requestor. A determination is made as to whether the requestor is authorized to access the data. In response to determining that the requestor is authorized to access the data, a determination is made as to whether the data is encrypted. An encryption key is requested from the requester, in response to determining that the data is not encrypted.
摘要:
Mechanisms are provided for extending cache for an external storage system into individual servers. Certain servers may have cards with cache in the form of dynamic random access memory (DRAM) and non-volatile storage, such as flash memory or solid-state drives (SSDs), which may be viewed as actual extensions of the external storage system. In this way, the storage system is distributed across the storage area network (SAN) into various servers. Several new semantics are used in communication between the cards and the storage system to keep the read caches coherent.
