Abstract
A data processing network includes a database management for a plurality of databases serviced by a server comprising a plurality of data processors. Each server data processor includes a copy of the database management system and a monitor for measuring and analyzing various parameters for each server data processor and each included database and performing various methods transparently to a user. For example, when a parameter or combination thereof indicates that a database in one data processor is inactive or requires additional resources, that database is set to an inactive state or is transferred to another data processor with greater resources, respectively. An inactive database is recalled upon receipt of a request for access to that database. A database in a data processor of greater resources can be returned to a server data processor or another data processor with fewer resources. These operations are transparent to database users and independent of user or administrator intervention.
