  • CPU resource management in computer cluster
    Patent number: 10162684
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to CPU resource management in a computer cluster. A master node selects a CPU core of at least one compute node for an application from a computer cluster, and allocates a portion of resource of the CPU core to the application. The master node re-allocates a new portion of the resource of the CPU core to the application, in response to a trigger event for re-allocation.
    Type: Grant

  • Automatically and dynamically reclaiming resources during virtual machine decommission
    Patent number: 9658894
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, computer program product, and computer system for reclaiming resources during virtual machine decommission. The method includes determining a virtual machine (VM) resource utilization and a cluster utilization. If the VM resource utilization is less than a first predetermined threshold and the cluster utilization is greater than a second predetermined threshold, the method then determines whether an active timer exists. If the active timer exists and has expired, then dynamic decommission of the VM is triggered.
