Workload Management With Resource Transfer Sequence Planned As A Function Of Ranking Of Resource Allocations

摘要

A computer system includes computing resources and workload containers to which the resources can be allocated. A workload manager plans 1) a reallocation of the computing resources among said containers, and 2) a transfer sequence for units of the computing resources to implement said reallocation. The transfer sequence specifies an order in which the computing resource units requiring transfer are to reallocated among the containers.
