| Summary: | A method, system and computer program product for optimizing allocation of resources to partitions of a data processing system are disclosed. The method includes creating a first virtual central processing unit and a second virtual central processing unit, wherein at least one of the set of the first virtual processing unit and the second virtual processing spans across a first physical processing unit and a second physical processing unit. One or more resources from the first and second virtual central processing units are allocated to a first partition and a second partition. Whether one or more processes running on the first partition can utilize additional resources is determined. One or more resources from the first virtual central processing unit and resources from the second virtual central processing unit are reallocated to the first partition, wherein at least one of the resources was previously allocated to the second partition. |
