Abstract
In an approach for isolating physical processors during optimization of virtual machine placement, a server is provided comprising a plurality of containers and a plurality of physical processors. A processor builds a set of bit masks for each type of physical processor required for a logical partition. A processor builds a set of solution spaces based on the plurality of containers and an amount of each type of container of the plurality of containers. A processor completes a combinatorial search of the set of bitmasks and the set of solution spaces. A processor identifies a solution space of the set of solution spaces for the logical partition. The physical and logical configuration of the server is changed based on the solution space for the first logical partition.
