A method for gathering and selectively synchronizing state information of at least one machine includes generating, by a first machine, a query identifying a plurality of metrics characterizing a state of a second machine and at least one criterion identifying a circumstance in which to respond to the query. The method includes determining, by the second machine, whether to respond to the query, responsive to the criterion in the query. The method includes transmitting, by the second machine, to the first machine, a response including a subset of the plurality of metrics, responsive to the determination. A system for gathering and selectively synchronizing state information of at least one machine, includes a first machine generating a query. The system includes an agent, on the second machine, determining whether to respond to the query, and transmitting a response including a subset of the plurality of metrics, responsive to the determination.
