20100079302 | Managing Condition Indicators that Use the Same Physical Indicator Device in a Logically Partitioned Computer System - A computer system independently maintains states of multiple condition indicators as logical state data, each indicator for a different respective condition and having at least an active and inactive state. Multiple condition indicators share a single human-perceptible physical indicator having at least (N+1) states, where N is the number of condition indicators, the physical indicator states including a state for all conditions inactive, and a respective separate state for each respective condition active. Preferably, the conditions comprise a fault condition and an identify condition, and the physical indicator is a light which is off if neither condition is active, is constant on if the fault condition is active, and is flashing if the identify condition is active. | 04-01-2010 |
20100083252 | Controlling Access to Physical Indicators in a Logically Partitioned Computer System - A low-level logical partitioning function associates partitions, partitionable entities, and location codes. Partitionable entities are hardware components, not necessarily individually replaceable. The location code reflects the physical topology of the system packaging. It is preferably a string of concatenated elements, each element representing a device in a hierarchical level of devices which may contain other devices. A respective location code is likewise associated with each of multiple physical indicators. The location code of partitionable entities allocated to a partition is compared with the indicator's location code to determine whether a process executing within a partition can access the indicator. Preferably, each partition has a virtual indicator corresponding to a physical indicator, the state of the physical indicator being derived as a function of the states of multiple virtual indicators for multiple partitions. | 04-01-2010 |
20100332912 | VISUAL FEEDBACK SYSTEM FOR USERS USING MULTIPLE PARTITIONS ON A SERVER - Systems, methods and articles of manufacture are disclosed for conveying which hardware components of a logically partitioned computer system are assigned to a selected logical partition of the computer system. Partition information for the computer system may be received. Further, a request may be received from a user to view which hardware components of the computer system are assigned to a selected logical partition of the computer system. Based on the received partition information, hardware components may be determined that are assigned to the selected logical partition. Based on the determined hardware components, a virtual model of the computer system may be generated that visually distinguishes hardware components assigned to the selected logical partition from hardware components not assigned to the selected logical partition. Responsive to the request, the virtual model may be output to a graphical display device. | 12-30-2010 |
