Abstract
A resource allocation manager and technique for servers within a computer system. Resources are initially allocated to servers and in order to enhance system performance, resources are reallocated based on a minimization of the maximum performance index. In one example, the server with the largest performance index is allocated additional resources and the server with the smallest performance index loses some of its resources.
