Definitions
- the present invention relates to resource management in a data processing system, and more particular relates to real-time analysis of resource availability when generating a comprehensive resource request for remote resource fulfillment.
- Grids are environments that enable software applications to integrate instruments, displays, computational and information resources that are managed by diverse organizations in widespread locations.
- Grid computing is all about sharing resources that are located in different places based on different architectures and belonging to different management domains .
- Computer grids create a powerful pool of computing resources capable of running the most demanding scientific and engineering applications required by researchers and businesses today.
- firewalls customers ask for a specific set of resources and are not given access to any resources that do not match that type, or even a certain class of service like security.
- the customer does not have access to an 'open environment' behind the supplier's firewall.
- a resource request in such an environment is often a fairly complex description of requirements (hardware, software, networks, etc.) which must be parsed in its entirety before any decisions can be made about available resource pools, pricing, and time to allocate such resources.
- the present invention provides a method, system and program product for efficiently processing resource allocation requests in an on-demand or real-time environment. Such efficiency is achieved by not just parsing hierarchical levels of resource requests by a remote resource manager, but in addition by also receiving the requests by such remote resource manager as they are entered by a user/requester.
- various resource requirements entered are immediately sent to a remote resource manager to allow for dynamic feedback to the user who is entering the resource requirements as to any issues or concerns regarding the requested resource (s) or plug-in element (s), such as lack of availability.
- the user can thus reconfigure or otherwise modify the various resource requests based on this feedback to optimize the overall resource allocation request.
- This also allows an organization providing services such as computer hosting services to re-allocate resources in advance if a new resource request would exceed a service level agreement outlined in advance with a customer, thereby improving resource planning in a data center environment.
- the dynamic feedback on the new resource request that exceeds an SLA can be used to develop a new SLA or temporary service offer that addresses the unique resource condition.
- a hierarchical description of an atomistic resource model is provided, from which a resource request may be generated.
- a discrete signal system is provided which generates a resource request, responsive to user interaction with the system, to a remote resource manager.
- a plug-in is provided to the remote resource manager to handle the dynamic, partially built requests. If a user deletes or decommits a field, a signal is dynamically sent to the remote resource manager to de-commit resources.

- a user request is input by a user using terminal 402, which may part of or attached to a client device such as client 108 shown in Figure 1.
- the user request may be any of a plurality of different types of requests, such as those shown in block 404, and may include a login request, a system-level request for systems such as servers or storage, a system software request for software such as an operating system (0/S) , microcode (ucode) or device/adapter driver (s), a system hardware request for hardware such as a processor, network or storage, an application middleware request, a geography request, a security request, and a capacity/performance request.
- the user request is transmitted across path 406, which may be implemented as a network such as network 102 shown in Figure 1, to a request gateway 408, which may be implemented by a server such as server 104 shown in Figure 1.
- a thread is created from thread pool 410, and this thread creates a finite state machine (FSM) 412 in the request gateway 408 to handle subsequent signals and errors such as request signals from the user and allowed/disallowed resource allocation attempts.
- FSM finite state machine
- the finite state machine 412 dynamically creates a plug-in workflow 414 which manages, in conjunction with the state table 416, different states of the request, including error conditions .
- the finite state machine uses a resource database 418 to determine if requested resources are available, and to temporarily commit resources until all signals in the request have been received.
- Plug-ins to translate requirements and coordinate with the provisioning engine 422 are dynamically executed within a runtime engine 424 in the finite state machine. These plug-ins are shown at 420 and are a part of a plug-in library. These plug-ins may provide functions such as Login, System Request (e.g. server, storage), System Software Request (e.g. operating system, microcode, drivers), System Hardware Request (e.g. processor, network, storage) , Application Middleware Request, Geography, Security and Capacity/Performance, as shown at 420. An error or unavailable signal can be generated at any point based upon the state of the user request.
- System Request e.g. server, storage
- System Software Request e.g. operating system, microcode, drivers
- System Hardware Request e.g. processor, network, storage
- Application Middleware Request e.g. processor, network, storage
- Capacity/Performance e.g. An error or unavailable signal can be generated at any point based upon the state of the user request.
- FIG. 5 a representative series of signals or transactions that flow between a user terminal such as 402 and a request gateway such as 408 are shown at 500.
- a user is generating a conglomerate resource request file or model, and inputs individual resource requests which are received at user terminal 402 and merged into a conglomerate resource request template (not shown) .
- a first resource request is signaled at 502.
- This signal causes an initial request message to be generated and transmitted to the request gateway at 504.
- This initial request message is received by the Request Gateway 408 at 506, and an acknowledgement is signaled by the request gateway at 508.
- This signal causes a request acknowledgement message to be transmitted across the network at 510, where it is received by the user terminal at 512.
- This initial resource request could be a login command, for example.
- the specific n plug-in resources are then sequentially transmitted to the request gateway, as initiated at 514.
- the sequential transmission of individual resources is done even when using a conglomerate template.
- An example of this interplay between transmission of individual resources and a client conglomerate template is provided by the IBM Websphere (R) Application Server, available from International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, N. Y. Business Gateway.
- the first of these plug-in requests is transmitted at 516, and received by the request gateway where the plug-in database/library, such as that shown at 420 in Figure 4, is queried or looked-up to determine availability of such plug-in resource at 518.
- a status response is sent by the request gateway at 520 and transmitted across network 406 at 522.
- a gateway client (not shown, but further described below) then sequentially signals a request for the next 2 to n plug-in requests at 524 in similar fashion to the first plug-in request, and the request gateway 408 processes these in the same manner as the first request at 526 and 528, with resulting acknowledgements being signaled back to the requestor at 530.
- the gateway client is an executable which is acting on behalf of the user/requestor to integrate into the dynamic request system, aggregates the received responses and presents the appropriate information to the user.
- client executable does not have to reside or execute on the requestor's machine, but rather has to act on behalf of the requestor as it processes responses and presents information to the requestor.
- An example of such a client would be a Java applet. Representative plug-in resources are shown at 590 in Figure 5.
- the plug-in is either provided at 534 if available, or the plug-in reservation request is released at 540 if not available. If available, a signal is generated at 546 (for inclusion in the response message that is subsequently sent across resource connection 550 and 548) . If the resource is not available and has been released, a release message is sent to the requestor at 542, resulting in an alert message at the user terminal indicating that the resource request has been cancelled at 544.
- This alert message advantageously provides for dynamic, real-time feedback of resource status from a remote resource manager, enabling the user/requestor to adjust their overall resource request package to account for such resource plug-in unavailability.
- the resource connection is provided by 548, 550 and 552 to provide the requested sources, which are remotely provided in the grid computer environment in the preferred embodiment, to the requester/customer who is outsourcing such requested resources.
- the user terminal signals a job complete request at 554, resulting in a request complete message being sent at 556, and received by the request gateway at 558.
- the gateway 408 signals an acknowledgement at 560, resulting in an acknowledgement message being sent to the user/requester terminal at 562, and received at 564.
- the resource allocation request manager application running at user terminal 402, responsive to the job complete request acknowledgement signal being received at 564, signals a release resource message at 566, which is sent across the network at 568 and results in the request gateway releasing the 1-n plug-ins relating to this completed job at 570.
- the request gateway acknowledges the release at 572, which is sent to the user terminal at 574 and received at 576 to thereby end the current outsourced job.
- This dynamic resource allocation scheme advantageously allows an organization providing services such as computer hosting services to re-allocate resources in advance if a service level agreement with a customer would otherwise be in violation without such re-allocation, thereby improving resource planning in a data center environment.
- a cluster 602 is a system built using software 604 and hardware 606.
- the software 604 is built using an application environment 608, system management 610, data management 612 and workload management 614.
- Data management 612 is built using one or more databases 616 and one or more file systems 618.
- the hardware is built using servers, disks, and a network, such as is shown by server (s) 620, storage 622 and network 624. It is probably difficult to define disks beyond a certain capacity, so storage 622 is considered to be an atomistic resource.
- Server 620 and network 624 can be described with even further detail.
- a server 620 may be described using operating system 626, I/O 628, on board memory 630, and processor 632.
- a network may be described by a switch 634 and the type of connectivity 636.
- a hierarchy of atomistic e.g. processor 632, storage 622, database 616, system management 610 and then compound resources (e.g. software 604 and hardware 606) are used to define the cluster.
- a plurality of such clusters can be further organized into a multi-cluster implementation (not shown), for use in a grid computing environment.
- this hierarchical model is expandable to cover different events or responses that may be required in a requested resource/system. For instance, a single event such as "More Capacity is required to execute Application ⁇ A' " can be broken down into several smaller events: (i) “More boxes of type E required", (ii) “More network bandwidth on switch plane 3 required", (in) "Application J on server 9.2.9.32 must be suspended", which would correspond to a similar set of responses, (iv) "System manager suspending application J on server 9.3.9.32", (v) "Switch configuration updated”, (vi) "Linux kernel rebuilt on server 9.3.9.32", which would in total correspond to the aggregated response of "More Application A systems have been allocated and built”. Complex responses for resource requests are thus built from fundamental or atomistic responses to the basic building blocks in the system.
- FIG. 4 An example of a conglomerate template can be seen in figure 4.
- the template is depicted on the client side (at 404) , which has been built by a user constructing various portions of a resource request.
- the server or system side 408 On the server or system side 408, a conglomerate is reconstructed by receiving pieces of this request and then using the appropriate plug-ins as determined by the finite state machine to dynamically assemble the resource request.
- the conglomerate is not required to be assembled in its entirety on the server side before the plug-ins execute, a historical trace of the actions that were taken by the plug-ins can be used to reconstruct the conglomerate on the server side.
- an improved technique for efficiently processing resource allocation requests in an on-demand environment is achieved by not just parsing hierarchical levels of resource requests by a remote resource manager, but in addition by also receiving the requests by such remote resource manager as they are entered by a user/requester.
- various resource requirements entered are immediately sent to a remote resource manager to allow for feedback to the user entering the resource requirements as to any issues or concerns regarding the requested resource (s), such as lack of availability.
- the user can thus reconfigure or otherwise modify the various resource requests based on this feedback to optimize the overall resource allocation request.
