Apparatuses and methods for remote computing node initialization using a configuration template and resource pools

Abstract:

A configuration management system is configured to receive a registration request message from a computing node that includes identifying information, and to select a node pool in response to detection of a match between the identifying information matching a qualification parameter assigned to the node pool. The configuration management system is further configured to select configuration information for the computing node based on an image configuration template associated with the node pool. At least part of the configuration information is selected from a predefined resource pool. The configuration management system is further configured to provide the configuration information to the computing node.
