REPLACING STALE CLUSTERS IN A CLUSTER POOL

Systems and methods are disclosed for replacing stale clusters in a cluster pool. An example method includes changing a configuration status of a resource pool managed by a resource pool manager from a first configuration to a second configuration. The resource pool may comprise a plurality of clusters. A portion of the plurality of clusters may be configured according to the first configuration and may store a first hash encoding configuration fields for the first configuration. The resource pool manager device may procure, at predetermined periods until a discontinuation cue, new clusters to include as part of the resource pool. Each new cluster procured at each predetermined period can be configured according to the second configuration. A second hash encoding configuration fields for the second configuration may be stored in each new cluster. Clusters that are not storing the second hash may be deleted from the resource pool.
