Zusammenfassung:Methods and systems for executing dumping of main memory content and CPU states and for an adaptive boot. The methods and the systems provide a configuration list of the computer system comprising a pre-defined set of dedicated resources for the dumping, provide threshold values for a pre-defined set of minimum resources for executing a reboot of the computer system, assign the pre-defined set of the dedicated resources for executing the dumping, start the dumping, release ones of the dedicated resources after content of the ones of the dedicated resources has been dumped, start a reboot process of the computer system in response to determining that the ones of the dedicated resources exceeds the threshold values for the pre-defined set of the minimum resources for executing the reboot process, and continue to release others of the dedicated resources to the reboot process until the dumping is completed.
