ABSTRACT:
A method, computer program product and system for enabling a client device in a client device/data center environment to resume from sleep state more quickly. The resource in the server blade used for suspending the activity of the computing state of the client device in order to enter the client device in a sleep state is not reallocated for a period of time. If the client device indicates to the server blade to resume the client device from sleep state prior to the ending of that period of time, then the server blade reinitializes the computing state using the same resource as used in suspending the computing state of the client device. By using the same resource, steps traditionally implemented in resuming the client device from sleep state are avoided thereby reducing the time in resuming the client device from sleep state.
