  • Patent number: 9858120
    Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for modifying memory space allocation for inactive tasks. Information is maintained on computational resources consumed by tasks running in the computer system allocated memory space in the memory. The information on the computational resources consumed by the tasks is used to determine inactive tasks of the tasks. The allocation of the memory space allocated to at least one of the determined inactive tasks is modified.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9508062
    Abstract: According to embodiments of the invention a method for servicing a problem management record are provided. The method may include creating a problem management record profile from information provided in a problem management record, wherein the information includes characteristics of a client computer system and symptoms of a problem. The method may also include comparing the profile to profiles of previously resolved problem management records to find a profile having at least one matching. The method may also include contrasting information used to obtain a solution to a problem of the previously resolved problem management record to the information provided in the problem management record, wherein information used to obtain a solution which is not provided in the information provided in the problem management record is classified as additional information. The method may also include collecting the additional information, wherein collecting includes searching documentation of the client computer system.

  • Patent number: 8943066
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system, method, and program product for managing data sets. According to one aspect of the present invention, a data group of one or more related data sets is reorganized. Utilizing one or more specified criteria, data sets that should be cataloged in the data group are identified and cataloged in the data group such that they are arranged in a chronological order and are named with appropriate generation numbers.
