Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, systems, and computer program products for managing a distributed system. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method is disclosed. In the method, packets that are to be transmitted among a group of nodes in a distributed system may be collected into a queue of packets, here a packet in the queue is associated with a source node and a destination node in the group of nodes. A snapshot in the group of snapshots may be obtained from a node in the group of nodes, therefore a group of snapshots may be obtained from the group of nodes. A snapshot of the distributed system may be generated based on the queue of packets and the group of snapshots. In other embodiments, a computer-implemented system and a computer program product for managing a distributed system are disclosed.
