Dynamic attribute resolution for orchestrated management

摘要

A method is provided herein for managing a plurality of computing entities. The method includes sending a dynamic attribute dependency to one or more of the computing entities. The dynamic attribute dependency specifies a constraint for performing the management operation based on a dynamic attribute of each of the one or more computing entities. Additionally, the method includes scheduling, based on the plan, an atomic task configured to perform the management operation on each of the one or more a computing entities based on whether the constraint is resolved. The method further includes performing the atomic task if the constraint is resolved.

1. A method for managing a plurality of computing entities, comprising:
sending a dynamic attribute dependency to one or more of the computing entities, wherein the dynamic attribute dependency specifies a constraint for performing a management operation on the one or more computing entities; scheduling, according to a plan, an atomic task to perform the management operation on each of the one or more computing entities based on whether the constraint is resolved; determining that the constraint is resolved asynchronously; performing the atomic task if the constraint is resolved, wherein the constraint is resolved if the condition is met during a specified time range, and wherein the atomic task is performed within a time period after the constraint is resolved, the computing entities comprising a first group and a second group, the condition specifying the first group and the second group, the condition being based on location; generating a buffer for each of the atomic tasks, wherein the buffer is configured to receive the event; and sending a reference identifying the buffer to the one computing entity.
