ABSTRACT:
In some embodiments, an information system is divided into sections, with one or more first computers located in a first section and one or more second computers located in a second section, including a first temperature sensor sensing a temperature condition for the first section and a second temperature sensor sensing a temperature condition for the second section. In some embodiments, when heat distribution determined from the first and second temperature conditions is not in conformance with a predetermined rule for heat distribution, the information system is configured to relocate a portion of the processing load of the first computers to the second computers, or vice versa, for bringing the heat distribution into conformance with the rule. In some embodiments, the effect of other equipment, such as storage system or switches in the sections is also considered, and loads on this equipment may also be relocated between sections.
