  • RECOVERING FROM A DEFECTIVE BOOT IMAGE
    Publication number: 20140281460
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer program products implement embodiments of the present invention that include detecting, by a first computer having a first memory, a software stack in a second memory of a second computer coupled to the first computer via a network. The software stack is copied from the second memory to the first memory, and the copied software stack is executed by the first computer.

  • SELF-HEALING USING AN ALTERNATE BOOT PARTITION
    Publication number: 20140281461
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer program products implement embodiments of the present invention that enable a computer system comprising networked computers to self-heal from a boot failure of one of the computers. In some embodiments, upon detecting a first computer failing to successfully load a first boot image, a second computer configures the first computer to boot a second boot image. Subsequent to configuring the first computer, the first computer is power cycled, and upon the power cycling, the first computer loads the second boot image.
