ABSTRACT:
An embodiment of the present invention is a technique to provide independent reset of a main partition. A reset functionality is disabled to preclude a main partition from resetting a platform. The platform has a visible resource belonging exclusively to the main partition. An activity of the main partition is monitored to determine if the main partition is about to reset the platform or becomes inoperable. The main partition is restricted to initialize the visible resource.
