Abstract
An example method for assigning location identifiers (IDs) to nodes in a distributed computer cluster network environment is provided and includes receiving notification of attachment of a compute node to a Top-of-Rack (ToR) switch in the distributed computer cluster network environment, retrieving compute node information from an inventory database in the ToR switch, calculating a location ID of the compute node as a function of at least a portion of the compute node information, and communicating the location ID from the ToR switch to the compute node. The location ID indicates an Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model Layer 7 logical group associated with an OSI model Layer 1 physical location of the compute node in the distributed computer cluster network environment.
