Abstract
Data access patterns between at least three nodes within a single symmetric multiprocessing server may be monitored by at least one hypervisor. At the hypervisor, mappings for the data access patterns may be generated for the at least three nodes. Based upon the mappings, the hypervisor may determine that the data access patterns for at least two of the at least three nodes are outside of a bandwidth threshold. In response to determining that the data access patterns for at least two of the at least three nodes are outside of a bandwidth threshold, the hypervisor may formulate an asymmetric cabling plan. Based upon the asymmetric cabling plan, a recommendation to alter the multiprocessor fabric link aggregation may be displayed to a user through a graphical user interface.
