ABSTRACT:
Exemplary embodiments provide a computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer-usable program code for moving a software partition from an origination network file system client data processing system to a destination network file system client data processing system. Responsive to receiving a request to perform a checkpoint operation on a software partition, network file system related mount information for the software partition is gathered. Determined ports of a network are unblocked. Unwritten data on the origination network file system client data processing system is synchronized with a remote network file system server. The network is re-blocked. A checkpoint file is generated and stored. The checkpoint file is sent to the destination network file system data processing system.
