Zusammenfassung: | Load balancing of adapters on a multi-adapter node of a communications environment. A task executing on the node selects an adapter resource unit to be used as its primary port for communications. The selection is based on the task's identifier, and facilitates a balancing of the load among the adapter resource units. Using the task's identifier, an index is generated that is used to select a particular adapter resource unit from a list of adapter resource units assigned to the task. The generation of the index is efficient and predictable. |
