Abstract
Managing the workload across one or more partitions of a plurality of partitions of a computing environment. One or more processors are identified in a partition to be managed by a quality weight defined according to characteristics of each corresponding processor. A load of each identified processor is measured depending on the requests already allocated to be processed by each corresponding processor. Each identified processor has a performance factor determined based on the measured load and the quality weight. The performance factor is a measurement of processor load. A new request is identified to be allocated to the partition, selecting a processor from the partition with the lowest performance factor. The new request is allocated to the selected processor.
