Abstract
Sharing local cache from a failover node, including: determining, by a managing compute node, whether a first compute node and a second compute node each have a local cache, where the second compute node is a mirrored copy of the first compute node; responsive to determining that the first compute node and the second compute node each have a local cache, combining, by the managing compute node, local cache on the first compute node and local cache on the second compute node into unified logical cache; receiving, by the managing compute node, a memory access request; and sending, by the managing compute node, the memory access request to an appropriate local cache in the unified logical cache.

7. An apparatus for sharing local cache from a failover node, the apparatus comprising a computer processor, a computer memory operatively coupled to the computer processor, the computer memory having disposed within it computer program instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the apparatus to carry out the steps of:
-
determining, by a managing compute node, whether a first compute node and a second compute node each have a local cache, wherein the second compute node is a mirrored copy of the first compute node; responsive to determining that the first compute node and the second compute node each have a local cache, combining, by the managing compute node, local cache on the first compute node and local cache on the second compute node into unified logical cache; receiving, by the managing compute node, a memory access request; and sending, by the managing compute node, the memory access request to an appropriate local cache in the unified logical cache. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A computer program product for sharing local cache from a failover node, the computer program product disposed upon a computer readable medium, the computer program product comprising computer program instructions that, when executed, cause a computer to carry out the steps of:
-
determining, by a managing compute node, whether a first compute node and a second compute node each have a local cache, wherein the second compute node is a mirrored copy of the first compute node; responsive to determining that the first compute node and the second compute node each have a local cache, combining, by the managing compute node, local cache on the first compute node and local cache on the second compute node into unified logical cache; receiving, by the managing compute node, a memory access request; and sending, by the managing compute node, the memory access request to an appropriate local cache in the unified logical cache. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
