Abstract
Systems, methods and articles of manufacture are disclosed for managing availability of a component executing in a distributed system. The component may have an address space closed to the distributed system. In one embodiment, the component may be initiated. A state of the component may be analyzed to determine the availability of the component. The determined availability may be transmitted to the distributed system. The component may also be restarted responsive to a request from the distributed system to restart the component.
Claims24
A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- configuring one or more computer processors to perform an operation for managing availability of a component executing in a distributed system, the component having an address space closed to the distributed system, wherein the operation comprises:
- monitoring one or more availability indications of the component within the distributed system;
- analyzing the one or more availability indications of the component;
- and
- assigning an availability state to the component within the distributed system based on the of the one or more availability indications of the component.
A computer-readable storage medium containing a program, which, when executed on a processor, performs an operation for managing availability of a component executing in a distributed system, wherein the operation comprises:
- monitoring one or more availability indications of the component within the distributed system, wherein the component has an address space closed to the distributed system;
- analyzing the one or more availability indications of the component;
- and
- assigning an availability state to the component within the distributed system based on the of the one or more availability indications of the component.
A system, comprising:
- one or more computer processors;
- and
- a memory containing a program, which when executed by the one or more computer processors is configured to perform an operation for managing availability of a component executing in a distributed system, the component having an address space closed to the distributed system, wherein the operation comprises:
- monitoring one or more availability indications of the component within the distributed system;
- analyzing the one or more availability indications of the component;
- and
- assigning an availability state to the component within the distributed system based on the of the one or more availability indications of the component.
