Abstract: The configuration of the logical processors of a logical partition is managed dynamically. A logical partition is initially configured with one or more logical processors. Thereafter, the configuration can be dynamically adjusted. This dynamic adjustment may be in response to workload of the logical partition.

Abstract: An exemplary embodiment of the invention is a method for assigning resources in a system configurable into logical partition clusters. The method includes defining at least one logical partition cluster. A LPC name index record storing a LPC name index for each of a plurality of resources is provided. The LPC name index record is indexed by a resource identifier. A LPC name record storing at least one LPC name is also provided. At least one LPC name index points to a LPC name in the LPC name record and each LPC name identifies an LPC. A resource is assigned to a group in response to the LPC name index record and the LPC name record.

Abstract: System and Method for Performing Resource Reconfiguration in a Computer System of the Invention A dynamic reconfiguration request for a change in a system's physical configuration is transmitted from a configuration controller to a hypervisor controlling operating systems executing in one or more partitions of the system. The hypervisor translates the physical reconfiguration request into a request for reconfiguration of logical resources known to the operating systems, first verifying it against an installation policy, and passes the requests to the operating systems in the partitions. The operating systems perform logical reconfiguration, then request physical reconfiguration of the hypervisor. The hypervisor initiates the physical reconfiguration through the configuration controller.

Abstract: A method of replacing a current version of a program module with a replacement version of the module concurrently with the execution of the program on a computer system. While execution of the program is suspended, each address reference in the program to an entry point within the current version of the module is replaced with an address reference to the corresponding entry point within the replacement version of the module. After the address references have been replaced and before execution is resumed, a patch initialization routine is invoked to perform initialization functions such as storage allocation, table initialization and feature detection that are performed before execution of the concurrently applied patch. Execution of the program is resumed when each address reference to the current module has been replaced with one to the replacement module and the patch initialization routine has been performed. A bit vector is used to ensure that each initialization function is performed only once per instantiation of the program being patched. An available storage value indicates the amount of initially allocated storage remaining available after performing an initialization function involving storage allocation.
