Abstract
In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing fault tolerance and resiliency within a cloud network. A cloud computing environment provides access, via the cloud network, to software applications executing within the cloud environment. The cloud network can include a plurality of network devices, of which various network devices can be configured as virtual chassis devices, cluster members, or standalone devices. A fault tolerance and resiliency framework can monitor the network devices, to receive status information associated with the devices. In the event the system determines a failure or error associated with a network device, it can attempt to perform recovery operations to restore the cloud network to its original capacity or state. If the system determines that a particular network device cannot recover from the failure or error, it can alert an administrator for further action.
