A network device to maintain resource management within a network may comprise an emulator or watchdog that may send an emulation request to a resource manager for emulating a request of a client. Operability of the resource manager may be identified based on a reply of the resource manager to the emulation request. If the resource manager does not provide a response within a given time frame, then the watchdog may identify a failure condition for the resource manager. The watchdog may then initiate corrective actions for replacing the resource manager with a backup server responsive to identifying the fail condition.
