Abstract: A method and apparatus for creating a dynamic storage pool for data recovery, is presented. The method may include determining amount of an available storage area, identifying storage capabilities of the available storage area, selecting a protection policy scheme for replication of an application server data based on the identified storage capabilities, provisioning a volume from the available storage area to the application server data, and replicating the application server data based on the selected protection policy scheme for storage to the available storage area.

Abstract: Multiple instances of operating systems execute cooperatively in a single multiprocessor computer wherein all processors and resources are electrically connected together. The single physical machine with multiple physical processors and resources is subdivided by software into multiple partitions, each with the ability to run a distinct copy, or instance, of an operating system. At different times, different operating system instances may be loaded on a given partition. Resources, such as CPUs and memory, can be dynamically assigned to different partitions and used by instances of operating systems running within the machine by modifying the configuration. The partitions themselves can also be changed without rebooting the system by modifying the configuration tree.

Abstract: Multiple instances of operating systems execute cooperatively in a single multiprocessor computer wherein all processors and resources are electrically connected together. The single physical machine with multiple physical processors and resources is subdivided by software into multiple partitions, each running a distinct copy, or instance, of an operating system. Each of the partitions has access to its own physical resources plus resources designated as shared. The partitioning is performed by assigning all resources with a configuration tree. None, some, or all, resources may be designated as shared among multiple partitions. Each individual operating instance will generally be assigned the resources it needs to execute independently and these resources will be designated as “private.” Other resources, particularly memory, can be assigned to more than one instance and shared.

Abstract: Multiple instances of operating systems execute cooperatively in a single multi-processor computer wherein a single physical machine is subdivided by software into multiple partitions, each with the ability to run a distinct copy, or instance, of an operating system. Each individual instance has the resources it needs to execute independently, but instances cooperate to migrate resources from one partition to another. The migration can be initiated and carried out under control of the operating system instances “on the fly” without intervention of the system administrator. Alternatively, a system administrator can reconfigure the system. Resource migration is carried out under a “push” model in which resources are controlled by an owning partition and must be released by that partition before they can be migrated to another partition. In accordance with this model, a first operating system instance which requires a resource must first request the resource from a second instance.
