Abstract
A mechanism is provided for sharing an application among multiple server systems. In one embodiment, the application is stored on a fast disk paging device. The paging device is in communication with each of a plurality of servers so that each server may be given access to the application. Virtual real memory (VRM) is allocated to a first virtual client of the first server. A portion of this VRM is allocated to the application. The application is executed by a virtual client of a first server. During execution a condition may occur that requires taking the first server off line. In that event, VRM is allocated to a second virtual client of a second server. A portion of this VRM is allocated to the application. The application is then executed by the second virtual client of the second server.
