Abstract

In one embodiment, a method is provided. The method of this embodiment may include detecting an operation initiated by a first device that can result in a change of a first set of resources previously allocated to a second device. If the operation has completed at least a certain phase of the operation and the first set of resources has changed as a result of the operation, the method of this embodiment may also comprise changing, by the second device, a second set of resources previously allocated by the second device to a third device. Of course, many modifications, variations, and alternatives are possible without departing from this embodiment.
