    摘要: A discovery computing system may receive an account identifier (ID) and a set of credentials required to access a first service account. The discovery computing system may transmit a first API query to a remote computing system. The discovery computing system may receive an organization identifier (ID) of the organization from the remote computing system. The discovery computing system may further transmit a second API query to the remote computing system. The discovery computing system may be further configured to receive information about a set of projects, in the organization, from the remote computing system. The discovery computing system may further generate a set of service accounts and further determine the set of resources, in the remote computing system, associated with each of the generated set of service accounts. The discovery computing system may further store the determined set of resources, as configuration items in a persistent storage.

    摘要: A method including acquiring an operation request issued by a distributed consistency system in a cluster, and determining deciding information for processing the operation request and sending the deciding information to an operation and maintenance control platform, wherein the deciding information is determined based on data consistency and availability of the distributed consistency system. The present disclosure solves the technical problems of data loss or service interruption in the distributed consistency system, which are caused by the higher error rate of manual operations used in cluster management methods for distributed consistency systems.

    摘要: Disclosed methods include sending, from a resource manager, network configuration information to each of one or more managed resources. The network configuration information may include an IP address for the resource manager, an IP address for each of the managed resources, and a predetermined timeout value. Network configurations for the resource manager and the one or more managed resources may then be set after which each managed resource may start a timer with the predetermined timeout value. If the resource manager detects successful completion of each of the network configuration operations, the resource manager may send a stop timer command to each of the managed resources. If a timeout occurs, the timeout will inform each of the managed resources that the change in network configuration was not entirely successful. The resource manager and each of the managed resources will then restore their network configurations to their previous configurations.

    摘要: The disclosure provides an approach for backward compatibility of federated data centers. A method includes of synchronizing an object configuration includes creating an object at a global network manager, where the object is associated with one or more properties, and where each of the one or more properties is associated with a minimum virtualized networking version. The method includes determining at the global network manager a minimum compatibility version of the object that is a largest minimum virtualized networking version associated with the one or more properties. The method includes determining a span associated with the object, where the span includes one or more local network managers. The method includes, based on the minimum compatibility version and the span, synchronizing the object at each of the one or more local network managers or determining not to synchronize the object at each of the one or more local network managers.
