| 20090252047 | DETECTION OF AN UNRESPONSIVE APPLICATION IN A HIGH AVAILABILITY SYSTEM - A method, information processing system, and computer program storage product for determining if an application has become unresponsive. Network traffic at a receiver node is monitored. The receiver node is determined to have generated a window probe response indicating a predetermined window size. A threshold associated with the window size of the receiver node is set in response to the receiver node having generated the window probe response. The window size of the receiver is determined to have been at the predetermined size for at least one of a time period greater than the threshold and a count greater than the threshold. An application associated with the receiver node is classified as unresponsive in response to the window size of the receiver node having been the predetermined size for at least one of a timer period greater than the threshold and a count greater than the threshold. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090254649 | HIGH AVAILABILITY OF INTERNET PROTOCOL ADDRESSES WITHIN A CLUSTER - A method, information processing system, and computer program storage product manage network layer addresses in a cluster multi-processing environment. Network address assignment in a cluster multi-processing environment is monitored. A network address currently assigned to a first network interface is determined, in response to monitoring network address assignment, to have been assigned to a second network interface. The first network interface is triggered to send an update message to at least one computing node communicatively coupled to the first network interface triggering in response to determining that a network address currently assigned to a first network interface has been assigned to a second network interface. The update message informs the computing node to transmit data associated with the network address to the first network interface. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090254775 | METHOD FOR ENABLING FASTER RECOVERY OF CLIENT APPLICATIONS IN THE EVENT OF SERVER FAILURE - A system and method are provided for improving recovery times in fallover conditions in a multinode data processing system by sending notification of the failure of a server node, which is acting as server for a client application running on a client node, to the client application. In the present invention, this notification is provided by the fallover node acting as backup for the server node. When a client application receives no response from a server for a long time, it assumes that the server has failed and initiates reconnection. The present invention speeds-up the reconnect initiated by the client application by having system level software proactively notify the client application about the server failure. This results in faster recovery for client applications. | 10-08-2009 |
