More Information
Summary:Techniques are provided for monitoring a plurality of independently operating processing nodes in a core data packet routing system, wherein each processing node is running its own operating system instance. A placement decision is made for respective processes on selected ones of the independently operating processing nodes based on a predetermined policy, and then the respective processes are placed, based on the placement decision, on the selected ones of the independently operating processing nodes such that the respective processes become placed processes. A list of placed process/processing node pairs specifying a pairing of the placed processes and the processing nodes on which the placed processes have been placed is maintained so that a user can review the then-current set of process placements.
