Abstract

A system detects failed service tier in cluster of servers, which are controlled by master node to execute applications and store data, in service tiers, which correspond to sets of server performance characteristics, in storage domains, which correspond to server racks, in cluster. The system identifies, by accessing database, applications installed on servers in failed service tier and any affinities that identified applications have for any type of server, any service tier, and/or any storage domain. The system updates, based on current configuration of cluster, identified affinities for identified applications. The system enables, by providing updated affinities for identified applications in database, master node to identify replacement servers, for identified applications, corresponding to set of server performance characteristics and server rack, and install identified applications in replacement servers, thereby enabling replacement servers to substitute for failed service tier and store data.
