Abstract: An example method of fault-handling for an autonomous cluster of hosts in a virtualized computing system includes: detecting, by a second plurality of infravisors in a second plurality of the hosts, lack of network connectivity with a first cluster control plane (CCP) executing on a first host in a first plurality of the hosts; electing, among the second plurality of infravisors, a second primary infravisor, a first primary infravisor executing on the first host; running, by the second primary infravisor, a second CCP on a second host in the second plurality of hosts; providing, by the second primary infravisor, a CCP configuration to the second CCP; and applying, by an initialization script of the second CCP, the CCP configuration to the second CCP to create a second autonomous cluster having the second plurality of hosts, the first CCP managing a first autonomous cluster having the first plurality of hosts.

Abstract: A method of upgrading a software service from a first version to a second version, wherein the software service is supported by a file system on which a first archive is mounted, includes the steps of: causing execution of the software service to be stopped, and mounting a second archive onto the file system, wherein the second mounted archive includes a plurality of files for executing the second version of the software service; creating a set of pointers, each of the set of pointers pointing to a respective one of the plurality of files of the second mounted archive; and after creating the set of pointers, causing the second version of the software service to be executed, wherein executing the second version of the software service involves accessing code from the plurality of files of the second mounted archive using the set of pointers and executing the code.
