Abstract
The present disclosure fallback management of managed devices utilizing edge management servers that periodically poll a primary management server. If the primary management server is unreachable, the edge management servers can assume management of a population of managed devices.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a management server executing a management service;
- a plurality of edge management servers executing an edge management service;
- wherein the management service, when executed, causes the management service to at least:
- identify a plurality of edge management servers executing an edge management service;
- identify a population of managed devices configured to be remotely managed by the management service;
- assign respective ones of the managed devices to a respective edge management server based upon at least one proximity factor;
- and
- wherein the edge management service, when executed, causes the plurality of edge management servers to at least:
- synchronize data corresponding to a respective managed device with the management service;
- periodically poll the management service to determine whether the management service is unreachable;
- and
- in response to determining that the management service is unreachable, assume management of a subset of the managed devices.

A method, comprising:
- identifying, by a management server, a plurality of edge management servers executing an edge management service;
- identifying, by the management server, a population of managed devices configured to be remotely managed by a management service running on the management server;
- assigning respective ones of the managed devices to a respective edge management server based upon at least one proximity factor;
- and
- synchronizing, by an edge management server, data corresponding to a respective managed device with the management service;
- periodically polling, by the edge management server, the management service to determine whether the management service is unreachable;
- and
- in response to determining that the management service is unreachable, assuming, by the edge management server, management of a subset of the managed devices.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying program instructions that, when executed, cause a management server executing a management service and a plurality of edge management servers to at least:
- identify a plurality of edge management servers executing an edge management service;
- identify a population of managed devices configured to be remotely managed by the management service;
- assign respective ones of the managed devices to a respective edge management server based upon at least one proximity factor;
- and
- synchronize data corresponding to a respective managed device with the management service;
- periodically poll the management service to determine whether the management service is unreachable;
- and
- in response to determining that the management service is unreachable, assume management of a subset of the managed devices.
