Abstract

A system and method is illustrated for comparing a target memory address and a local memory size using a hypervisor module that resides upon a compute blade, the comparison based upon a unit of digital information for the target memory address and an additional unit of digital information for the local memory size. Additionally, the system and method utilizes swapping of a local virtual memory page with a remote virtual memory page using a swapping module that resides on the hypervisor module, the swapping based upon the comparing of the target memory address and the local memory size. Further, the system and method is implemented to transmit the local virtual memory page to a memory blade using a transmission module that resides upon the compute blade.
