Abstract: In one embodiment, a system includes at least one processor and logic integrated with and/or executable by the processor, the logic being configured to instantiate, using an interface definition language (IDL) on a first server, a remote procedure call (RPC) function to exchange information between the first server and a second server, generate at least one stub on the first server using the RPC, and generate at least one stub on the second server using the RPC, wherein the at least one stub generated on the second server does not perform any marshalling or un-marshaling of data when endianess of the two servers is the same. Other systems, methods, and computer program products for exchanging information between servers using RPCs are described in more embodiments.

Abstract: A scheduler may run a script. The script may have a plurality of configuration commands for a network device. A first configuration command of the plurality of configuration commands may be called to begin. A script engine may determine whether a termination request has been received. The script engine may run the first configuration command when it is determined the termination request is not received. While the first configuration command is running, the script engine may receive the termination request. Instead of terminating immediately upon detection of a termination request, the first configuration command may complete.

Abstract: One or more processors receive a standardized interface request that includes a command formatted in an application protocol. One or more processors extract a class name from a uniform resource identifier (URI) of an application header of the standardized interface request. The application header includes a meta-data that allows class declarations to function as a portion of interface description language. One or more processors identify a type of the command based, at least in part, on the application protocol of the command. One or more processors process the command based on the identified type of the command, the application protocol of the command, and the meta-data. One or more processors send a standardized interface response based on a result of the processing.

Abstract: A computer system with a memory containing a first guest operating system, including a first portion of the memory and a second guest operating system, including a second portion of the memory. The memory further contains an address exchange module for exchanging memory address handles, a data mover for moving data between the first and second portions of the memory, and an emulated input output memory management unit for controlling the data mover. Instructions in the memory cause the processor to: register accessible memory with the emulated input output memory management unit, write address handles to the address exchange module, read the address handles from the address exchange module, and move the data into the second portion of the memory.

Abstract: A data processing system includes a main storage, an input/output memory management unit (IOMMU) coupled to the main storage, a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) device coupled to the IOMMU, and a mapper. The system is configured to allocate an amount of physical memory in the main storage and the IOMMU is configured to provide access to the main storage and to map a PCI address from the PCI device to a physical memory address within the main storage. The mapper is configured to perform a mapping between the allocated amount of physical memory of the main storage and a contiguous PCI address space. The IOMMU is further configured to translate PCI addresses of the contiguous PCI address space to the physical memory address within the main storage.

Abstract: A database replication method comprises storing a database snapshot to determine changes applied to at least one first database system component; generating a sequence of change records using the database snapshot, and rearranging the sequence of change records to reflect referential dependencies, and a database computer system, data processing program, and computer program product therefor.
