In a cluster system including a plurality of operating systems operating on one computer, computer resources can be updated for and reallocated to each operating system. When the operating systems are used as active or standby operating systems, a multiple operating system management controller monitors the state of each operating system. At a failure of an active operating system, the controller allocates a larger part of computer resources to another operating system in a normal state and assigns the operating system as a new active operating system. Regardless of the failure, the computer system can be operated without changing processing capability thereof. The controller can monitor load of each operating system to allocate computer resources to the operating system according to the load.

A method, system, and apparatus for informing a plurality of operating systems, each assigned to a separate partition within a logically partitioned data processing system, of which functions, provided by a hypervisor for creating and enforcing separation of the logical partitions, are available for use by the operating systems is provided. In a preferred embodiment, the hypervisor includes a plurality of function sets. Each function set includes a list of functions that may be called by any one of the operating systems to perform tasks for the operating systems while maintaining separation between each of the logical partitions. The hypervisor informs each of the plurality of operating systems of an enabled function set. Functions identified within the enabled function set are enabled for use by each of the plurality of operating systems and functions not identified within the enabled function set are disabled for use by each of the plurality of operating systems.

An information processing apparatus wherein a plurality of operating systems operate on a single processor and a framework (shared object) enabling reliable and quick sharing of correct information between the plurality of operating systems is provided. The apparatus has a function the plurality of operating systems can create, register and refer to the shared object which provides an interface for registration and reference of information. The shared object is operated so that, while one of the operating systems is registering information or referring thereto, the other operating system is inhibited from registering the information and referring thereto. When one operating system finished the registration or reference of the information, one operating system informs the other operating system of the fact.
