Abstract

Systems and methods for activating a component in a computing system having a plurality of partitions. One method includes receiving a request to activate a component having an object class ID and a partition ID and detecting if the object class ID is contained within a default partition corresponding to the partition ID. If the object class ID is contained within the default partition, an instance of the component in the partition ID is activated. If the object class ID is not contained within the default partition, the method includes detecting if the object class ID is contained within a base partition. If the object class ID is contained in the base partition, an instance of the component in the base partition is activated.
