Abstract: A resource and partition manager includes a power on/power off mechanism that is used to assure a hardware resource is powered down when control of the resource is removed from a logical partition, and to assure the hardware resource is powered up when control of the hardware resource is transferred to a logical partition. In the alternative, the resource and partition manager may simply place the hardware resource in a power on reset state when the hardware resource is transferred to a logical partition. In this manner, when made available to a partition, the hardware resource is in a power-on reset state, which is the state typically expected by the logical partition.

Abstract: A resource and partition manager of the preferred embodiments includes a lock mechanism that operates on a plurality of locks that control access to individual hardware resources. The resource and partition manager uses the lock mechanism to obtain a lock on a hardware resource when transferring control of the hardware resource to a logical partition that is powering on and when removing the hardware resource from a logical partition that is powering off. The resource and partition manager uses the lock mechanism to remove control of a hardware resource from, or return control to, an operating logical partition in order to facilitate hardware service operations on that hardware resource or on the physical enclosure in which it is contained. The preferred embodiments also include methods for releasing system resources and address bindings allocated to a hardware resource when control the hardware resource is removed from a logical partition.

Abstract: An apparatus, clustered computer system, program product and method assist in the distribution of configuration data such as VPD for a switchable resource to multiple nodes within a clustered computer system. Program code operating as a resource manager is used to enroll a node to receive updates to a switchable resource in the clustered computer system, and, in response to an update to the switchable resource, to notify each enrolled node of the update. Moreover, configuration data is communicated along with the notification to each enrolled node, such that any data required to initiate acquisition of functional ownership of a switchable resource by any such node will be locally available to such node.

Abstract: Ein Verfahren, System und Programmprodukt verwenden eine ereignisgesteuerte Reoptimierung zum Neuzuordnen von einer oder mehreren logischen Partitionen in einem Pool von logisch partitionierten Datenverarbeitungssystemen in einer logisch partitionierten Datenverarbeitungsumgebung in Reaktion auf ein Erkennen eines Systemereignisses, das die kollektiven Ressourcenanforderungen von logischen Partitionen wahrscheinlich erhöht oder verringert, die sich in einer logisch partitionierten Datenverarbeitungsumgebung befinden. Die Reoptimierung kann zum Konsolidieren von logischen Partitionen auf weniger Prozessorknoten verwendet werden, um das Potenzial für ein Herunterfahren von Hardware-Ressourcen zu verbessern und damit den Energieverbrauch zu verringern.
