ABSTRACT:
A method, system and computer program product for transitioning network traffic between logical partitions in one or more data processing systems are disclosed. The method includes defining a plurality of logical partitions with respect to one or more processing units of one or more data processing systems and dynamically reallocating resources from a second partition to a first partition among the plurality of logical partitions. Packets awaiting processing are transferred from the second partition to the first partition and processed on the first partition.
