An example system includes one or more resource managers forming a federation of resources, at least one resource manager being associated with one or more resources; a federation hub for receiving local resource information from each of the one or more resource managers, wherein the federation hub aggregates the local resource information from each of the one or more resource managers and provides an aggregated view of all resources of the federation; and a bylaw guardian for determining compliance of each of the one or more resource managers to requirements of the federation.

Resource federation

A system and method for managing multiple server computer systems on a computer network. The functions of a central management server are distributed to multiple daemons executing independently of each other on one or more computer systems. Distributing the functions of the central management server to separate multiple daemons substantially improves the reliability of a multi-server management application.
