Abstract
A system includes a plurality of clustered servers, a plurality of clients communicating with the plurality of clustered servers, and a grace database. Each of the plurality of clustered servers maintains a respective client recovery list. A client of the plurality of clients is configured to send a reclaim request to a server of the plurality of clustered servers. The grace database is configured to maintain an epoch value and a reclaim value. The epoch value indicates the current epoch, and the reclaim value indicates from which epoch reclaim is allowed. The server of the plurality of clustered servers is configured to maintain a client list and receive the reclaim request from the client. The client list indicates each client currently holding state on the server.
