Abstract

Example embodiments of the present invention relate to a method, a system, and a computer program product for re-syncing a distributed cache after node disconnection. The method includes stopping cache coherency among a plurality of nodes at times a first node among the plurality of nodes is in a disconnected state and determining the first node is no longer in the disconnected state. A second cache at a second node then may dump portions of the second cache at the second node inconsistent with changes made to a first cache at the first node at times the first node was in the disconnected state.
