ABSTRACT:
Power and redundancy management policies are applied individually to the tiers of redundant servers of an application service such that power is reduced while maintaining a high level of system availability. Servers which are determined to be relatively inactive are moved to a free pool. Certain servers of the free pool are maintained in a hot standby state, while others are powered-off or set to operate in a low power mode. During times of high load, the servers in the hot standby state can be provisioned quickly into the application service.
