A dynamic reconfiguration request for a change in a system's physical configuration is transmitted from a configuration controller to a hypervisor controlling operating systems executing in one or more partitions of the system. The hypervisor translates the physical reconfiguration request into a request for reconfiguration of logical resources known to the operating systems, first verifying it against an installation policy, and passes the requests to the operating systems in the partitions. The operating systems perform logical reconfiguration, then request physical reconfiguration of the hypervisor. The hypervisor initiates the physical reconfiguration through the configuration controller. <IMAGE> |
