Abstract

A method for reconciling host membership information in a data center. The method generally includes querying, by a remote management device configured to manage one or more host clusters in the data center, one or more cluster stores to retrieve first host membership information for each of the one or more host clusters, each cluster store being associated with a host cluster of the one or more host clusters, comparing second host membership information stored at the remote management device for the one or more host clusters to the first host membership information to identify one or more discrepancies between the second host membership information and the first host membership information, and updating the second host membership information such that the second host membership information is consistent with the first host membership information.
