| abstract |
Among other things, embodiments described herein enable systems, e.g., Availability Management Forum (AMF) systems, having service units to operate with balanced loads both before and after the failure of one of the service units. A configuration can be generated which provides for distributed backup roles and balanced active loads. When a failure of a service unit occurs, the active loads previously handled by that service unit are substantially evenly picked up as active loads by remaining service units. |
