Abstract
An approach for at least one service processor to receive a notification of at least one failure during an initial program load of a server and to identify at least one step failing the initial program load. The at least one service processor determines whether a set of conditions are met to switch the initial program load responsibility from a master processor to a service processor. Furthermore, responsive to the at least one service processor determining that the set of one or more conditions are met to switch initial program load responsibility, the at least one service processor assumes the initial program load responsibility.
