Abstract
A computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer program product for automated ranking of target server partitions based on current workload partition performance state. When a violation of a stack tier policy for the virtualized process collection in a source logical partition is detected, the stack tier comprising the virtualized process collection is examined to determine a scalability of the stack tier. A set of logical partitions are examined to identify target logical partitions for the migration event, wherein the target logical partitions are compatible for migrating the virtualized process collection based on the scalability of the stack tier. A performance state of the virtualized process collection is analyzed, and the target logical partitions for selection in the migration event are ranked based on the performance states of the virtualized process collection and the stack tier policy.
