Generating a performance policy for a server. A plurality of system metrics of a first server is monitored, and a benchmark for the plurality of system metrics based on the monitored plurality of system metrics is stored. The benchmark indicates desirable system metrics of the first server. An operating policy for a second server is generated from the stored benchmark. The operating policy includes desirable system metrics of the second server based on the desirable system metrics of the first server.

Server health checking

A method and apparatus for communicating message data between a plurality of subsystems () in the form of distributed resource managers. The subsystems are coupled together through a coupling means () with a shared memory with at least one shared queue () in the shared memory. Access to the shared queue () is available from each of the coupled subsystems and message data can be communicated between the subsystems via the shared queue (). Each subsystem has a long running process () checking the shared queue for messages for that subsystem.
