Abstract

A system and technique are provided for providing a service address space. The system includes a service co-processor provided with a service address space. The service co-processor is attached to a main processor wherein the main processor is provided with a main address space. The service address space and the main address space include a full range of memory available to the respective service-co-processor and the main processor. The service co-processor creates and maintains an independent copy of the main address space in the form of the service address space. The service co-processor has a storage update receiving component for updating the service address space by receiving storage delta packets from the main processor and applying these to the service address space.
