CROSS-CLUSTER HOST REASSIGNMENT

Abstract:

Disclosed are various implementations of approaches for reassigning hosts between computing clusters. A computing cluster assigned to a first queue is identified. The first queue can include a first list of identifiers of computing clusters with insufficient resources for a respective workload. A host machine assigned to a second queue can then be identified. The second queue can include a second list of identifiers of host machines in an idle state. A command can then be sent to the host machine to migrate to the computing cluster. Finally, the host machine can be removed from the second queue.
