Abstract
A computer-implemented method for resolving split-brain scenarios in computer clusters may include (1) identifying a plurality of nodes within a computer cluster that are configured to collectively perform at least one task, (2) receiving, from a node within the computer cluster, a failure notification that identifies a link-based communication failure experienced by the node that prevents the nodes within the computer cluster from collectively performing the task, and, upon receiving the failure notification, (3) immediately prompting each node within the computer cluster to participate in an arbitration event in order to identify a subset of the nodes that is to assume responsibility for performing the task subsequent to the link-based communication failure. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
