Abstract: In accordance with example implementations, a process includes associating a secondary computer system with a primary computer system. The secondary computer system includes a first virtual machine, which is hosted by a secondary set of physical computer nodes. The primary computer system has a primary role, and the primary role corresponds to a minimum physical resource allocation. The secondary computer system is associated with a secondary role, and the second computer system is provisioned with a second physical resource allocation, which is less than the minimum physical resource allocation. The process includes, responsive to the primary computer system failing and without rebooting the secondary computer system, preparing the secondary computer system to take over the primary role. The preparation includes adding at least one physical computer node to the secondary set of physical computer nodes to cause the second physical resource allocation to meet or exceed the minimum physical resource allocation. The process includes, responsive to the primary computer system failing and without rebooting the secondary computer system, causing the secondary computer system to take over the primary role.
