Abstract
Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. A high availability system includes a high availability set of a primary node processing incoming computational tasks and two or more backup nodes in a queue. The incoming computational tasks for the high availability set is managed according to various policies. For example, based on detecting an impending failure of the primary due to a lack of resources allocated for the primary node, one of the backup node that has the resources lacking from the primary node and that is the least likely to be used for processing the incoming computational tasks is selected as a lender node, according to a borrowing policy, and the resources of the lender node is allocated to the primary for further processing of the incoming computational tasks.
