Abstract
A method for dynamic reconfiguration of a computer network as a result of an instruction for object rebalance. The method comprises selecting an object to be relocated and choosing a relocation server to which the object is to be relocated. A meta data corresponding to the object is updated. The object is transferred to the relocation server; and a view ID table is updated with a new view ID corresponding to the object.
Claims55
A method for dynamic reconfiguration of a computer network as a result of an instruction for object rebalance, the method comprising:
- a) selecting an object to be relocated;
- b) choosing a relocation server to which the object is to be relocated;
- c) updating a meta data corresponding to said object;
- d) transferring the object to said relocation server;
- and
- e) updating a view ID table with a new view ID corresponding to the object.
A computer program product including computer readable media, said media comprising instruction that enable a computer to perform a procedure for object rebalancing, the procedure comprising:
- a) selecting an object to be relocated;
- b) choosing a relocation server to which the object is to be relocated;
- c) updating a meta data corresponding to said object;
- d) transferring the object to said relocation server;
- and
- e) updating a view ID table with a new view ID corresponding to the object.
A method for providing an object to a requestor, for use in a computer network capable of performing dynamic configuration, the method comprising:
- a) receiving a request for the object, the request comprising at least a view identification (view-ID) for the object;
- b) checking in a view ID table to check if the requested object is current;
- c) if the requested object is current, returning the object to the requestor;
- and
- d) if the object is not current, forwarding the request to another server based on information in the view ID table.
A computer program product including a computer-readable media, said media comprising instructions for enabling a computer to perform a procedure for performing dynamic configuration of a computer network, the procedure comprising:
- a) receiving a request for the object, the request comprising at least a view identification (view-ID) for the object;
- b) checking in a view ID table to check if the requested object is current;
- c) if the requested object is current, returning the object to the requester;
- and
- d) if the object is not current, forwarding the request to another server based on information in the view ID table.
A server in a computer network capable of dynamic configuration as a result of an instruction for object rebalance, the server comprising:
- a processor;
- a communicator connected to said processor and to a rest of the computer network;
- said processor capable of handling at least an instruction for object rebalance.
