Abstract

System and methods for replicating and enforcing license information in a computer cluster are described. The method may include: receiving, by a core-node in the computer cluster, a plurality of peer-license-info from a plurality of peer-nodes selected from a plurality of cluster nodes. Each of the plurality of peer-license-info may include license-info collected by and associated with a corresponding one of the plurality of peer-nodes. The method may include generating, by the core-node, a first cluster-license-info based on the plurality of peer-license-info. The method may further include propagating, by the core-node, the first cluster-license-info to each of the plurality of peer-nodes. The first cluster-license-info is configured for detecting license violations among the plurality of cluster nodes.
