Abstract
A first network device may receive a notification over a network; in response to the notification, cause a virtualized operating system (OS) and a hypervisor of the first network device to obtain state units from one or more of first hardware components and virtual components; create a context state transfer package (CSTP) based on the state units; and forward the CSTP from the first network device to a second network device over the network. The second network device may receive the CSTP from the first network device; unpack the CSTP to obtain the state units; and put, at the second network device, second hardware components and virtual components of the second network device in a same state as the first hardware components and virtual components when the state units were obtained at the first network device.
