Abstract: Managing power consumption of multiple computing node clusters of a computing rack system is described. An example system may include a plurality of computing node clusters each comprising a respective plurality of computing nodes, and a power management system. The power management system is configured to determine respective power budget rules associated with each of the plurality of computing node clusters based on a maximum power consumption limit, and to provide the respective power budget rules to an associated one of the plurality of computing node clusters. The power management system is further configured to receive respective power consumption data from each of the plurality of computing node clusters and to adjust the respective power budget rules associated with at least one of the plurality of computing node clusters based on the respective power consumption data associated with each of the plurality of computing node clusters.

Abstract: Systems for multi-cluster virtualized computing system management. A method for performing virtual entity replication between source computing clusters and target computing clusters commences upon establishing a virtual entity naming convention that is observed by both the source computing clusters and the target computing clusters. A snapshot from a source cluster is associated with a global snapshot ID before being transmitted to a target computing cluster. At some point in time, the source cluster will initiate acts to replicate a virtual entity to a particular data state that is associated with a particular named snapshot. A second replication protocol then commences. The second replication protocol includes exchanges that serve to determine whether or not the target computing cluster has a copy of a particular named snapshot as named by the global snapshot ID, and if so, to then initiate virtual entity replication at the target computing cluster using the named snapshot.
