SYSTEM AND METHOD OF PROVIDING RESERVATION MASKS WITHIN A COMPUTE ENVIRONMENT
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of managing compute resources within a compute environment, the method comprising:
- identifying a need type and a group of available compute resources;
creating a reservation mask over the identified group of compute resources; and
if a request from a consumer matches the need type, then constraining the creation of a sub-reservation for the consumer to only use compute resources within the reservation mask.

Abstract
A system, method and computer-readable media for providing a reservation mask for compute resources such as a cluster or a grid. The method aspect comprises identifying a need type and a group of available resources, creating a reservation mask over the identified group of resources and if a request from a consumer matches the need type, then constraining the creation of a reservation for the consumer to only use resources within the reservation mask.

27. A method of managing compute resources within a compute environment, the method comprising:
-
identifying a need type and a group of available resources; creating a reservation mask over the identified group of resources; and if a request from a requestor matches the need type, then constraining the creation of a sub-reservation for the requestor independent of the reservation mask and according to credentials associated with the request. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29, 30)

31. A system for managing compute resources within a compute environment, the system comprising:
-
means for identifying a need type and a group of available resources; means for creating a reservation mask over the identified group of resources; and means for constraining the creation of a sub-reservation associated with a request from a consumer that matches the need type. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34)

35. A system for managing compute resources within a compute environment, the system comprising:
-
a module configured to identify a need type and a group of available resources; a module configured to create a reservation mask over the identified group of resources; and a module configured to constrain the creation of a sub-reservation for the consumer if a request from a consumer matches the need type. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38)

39. A computer-readable medium storing instructions for controlling a computing device to manage compute resources within a compute environment, the instructions comprising:
-
identifying a need type and a group of available resources; creating a reservation mask over the identified group of resources; and constraining the creation of a sub-reservation for the consumer if a request from a consumer matches the need type. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41)
