An embodiment allows an application to use a unique feature of an
operating system residing on a LPAR different than its own. If the
application makes a request for a feature not available in the operating
system that it runs on, a transporter module can check its records to
verify if such a feature exists on another operating system in a
different LPAR. If it does exist, the transporter communicates to a
facilitator of the operating system on the different LPAR though a
hypervisor. The facilitator provides the unique feature to the
transporter, who then forwards it to the application in need.
