Abstract
A computing system comprising multiple computing resources in which one resource assumes spare status using a spare election algorithm. According to the algorithm each computing resource on initialization requests permission to assume spare state from the other computing resources. Then if all of the other computing resources grant the permission the requesting computing resource assumes spare state. If one of the other computing resources does not grant the permission to the requesting resource then the requesting resource assumes normal state.
