Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, multiple data scan operations are compacted into a single network message. A plurality of requests to perform a data scan operation on a remote node controller is received, forming a set of received data scan operation requests. A set of data scan operations are generated based on the set of received data scan operation requests, forming a set of generated data scan operations. A network message comprising the set of generated data scan operations is generated, forming a first compacted data scan operation network message. The first compacted data scan operation network message is sent to the remote node controller. A second compacted data scan operation network message is received from the remote node controller, wherein the second compacted data scan operation network message comprises a set of completed data scan operations. The set of completed data scan operations are separated into individual completed data scan operations.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for recovering terminated partitions in a logical partitioned data processing system. A termination of a partition in a set of partitions associated with a host bridge in the logical partitioned data processing system is detected. The state of other partitions within the set of partitions is checked in response to detecting the termination. A recovery process is initiated if all partitions in the set of partitions have terminated. Input/output slots associated with the host bridge are reset to a normal state if the recovery process is successful. The set of partitions is rebooted after resetting the input/output slots associated with the host bridge without rebooting the logical partitioned data processing system.
