20100017735 | Decentralized hardware partitioning within a multiprocessing computing system - In general, techniques for performing decentralized hardware partitioning within a multiprocessing computing system are described herein. More specifically, the multiprocessing computing system comprises first and second independent computing cells, where the first cell comprises a first processor that calculates a partition identifier. The partition identifier uniquely identifies a partition to which the first cell belongs. The first cell also comprises a second processor that establishes the partition within the multiprocessing computing system based on the partition identifier, and executes a single operating system across the partition. In the event the established partition successfully includes the first and second cells, the first and second cells execute the single operating system across the partition. Because the cells themselves perform the partitioning process, scalability may be achieved more easily. Moreover, the overall cost of the system may be reduced because a dedicated processor may no longer be required to perform partitioning. | 01-21-2010 |
20100017873 | Secure communication over virtual IPMB of a mainframe computing system - In general, techniques for secure communicating over a virtual IPMB of a mainframe computing system are described herein. More specifically, the mainframe computing system comprises a plurality of independent computing cells communicatively coupled together by a network interconnect and that form a plurality of partitions. Each partition is a logical association of one or more of the cells to define a single execution environment. Each cell further executes a virtual intelligent platform management interface (IPMI) protocol to define and configure a respective logical intelligent platform management bus (IPMB) for each of the partitions. Each of the IPMBs logically interconnects with each of the other cells included within the same partition, and each is defined for communication of IMPI messages over the network interconnect. The cells securely communicate the IPMI messages between each of the one or more other cells of each partition via the respective logical IPMB of each partition. | 01-21-2010 |
