Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for applying a patch or a change to a set of binary modules executing on and used by resources of a computing cluster while reducing the downtime of those resources. According to one embodiment, applying a patch to a plurality of binary modules on a computing cluster can comprise identifying resources on one or more of a plurality of nodes of the cluster. Additionally, each of the plurality of binary modules on one or more of the nodes of the cluster can be identified. A graph can be generated logically representing the cluster. Groups within the binary modules and resources can be identified based on the graph. Patches can be applied to the binary modules based on the identified groups. Patching binary modules based on the identified groups can comprise patching all of the binary modules of an identified group together.
