A configuration management system is configured to receive a registration request message from a computing node that includes identifying information, and to select a node pool in response to detection of a match between the identifying information matching a qualification parameter assigned to the node pool. The configuration management system is further configured to select configuration information for the computing node based on an image configuration template associated with the node pool. At least part of the configuration information is selected from a predefined resource pool. The configuration management system is further configured to provide the configuration information to the computing node.

Apparatuses and methods for remote computing node initialization using a configuration template and resource pools

A computing node is configured to initialize by requesting a particular network resource from a network management server, and receiving acknowledgment of the particular network resource and an encryption key from the network management server to contact a configuration management server. The initialization further includes providing, using the particular network resource, a registration request message encrypted based on the encryption key to the configuration management server, and receiving configuration information corresponding to the computing node from the configuration management server in response to the registration request computing node.
