Abstract
A data processing system includes a system fabric, a system memory, a memory controller, and a link controller communicatively coupled to the system fabric and configured to be communicatively coupled, via a communication link to a destination host with which the source host is non-coherent. A plurality of processing units is configured to execute a logical partition and to migrate the logical partition to the destination host via the communication link. Migration of the logical partition includes migrating, via a communication link, the dataset of the logical partition executing on the source host from the system memory of the source host to a system memory of the destination host. After migrating at least a portion of the dataset, a state of the logical partition is migrated, via the communication link, from the source host to the destination host, such that the logical partition thereafter executes on the destination host.
