Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a resource management mechanism to monitor the availability of resources, detect the cause of a rejection, distinguish between different types of rejections, and manage the different types accordingly. For example, a queue manager in accordance with embodiments of the invention may be able to classify rejected requests, for example, as either a “long reject” or a “short reject” based on the cause of the rejection and the amount of time the rejection conditions are expected to remain valid. A short reject request may be rescheduled in an appropriate service queue, while a long reject request may be suspended in a reject queue. Other features are described and claimed.
