Abstract
Managing computer resource allocation includes detecting, by one computer amongst a plurality of computers, generation of an allocation request, wherein the allocation request requests exclusive access, by the one computer, to a computer resource shared between the plurality of computers; determining a period of time that has elapsed since detection of the generation of the allocation request; determining that a delay has occurred when the period of time has exceeded a predetermined threshold; and then, transmitting, by the one computer, a delay message based on the delay to each of the plurality of computers.
