Abstract

The present memory restoration system enables a collection of computing systems to prepare inactive rewritable memory for reserve and future replacement of other memory while the other memory is active and available for access by a user of the computing system. The preparation of the reserved memory part is performed off-line in a manner that is isolated from the current user of the active memory part. Preparation of memory includes erasure of data, reconfiguration, etc. The memory restoration system allows for simple exchange of the reserved memory part, once the active memory part is returned. The previously active memory may be concurrently recycled for future reuse in this same manner to become a reserved memory. This enables the computing collection infrastructure to 'swap' to what was previously the inactive memory part when a user vacates a server, speeding up the server wipe process.
