    Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for allocating a host of a pre-configured hyper-converged computing device to a workload domain, a pre-configured hyper-converged computing device including a plurality of hosts is managed, wherein the plurality of hosts is allocable to workload domains. A pool of unallocated hosts of the plurality of hosts is managed within the pre-configured hyper-converged computing device, wherein hosts of the pool of unallocated hosts have associated hypervisor versions. An allocation request to allocate at least one host of the pool of unallocated hosts to a workload domain is received, the allocation request including a requested hypervisor version of at least one host upon allocation. The at least one host is updated to the requested hypervisor version of the allocation request while the at least one host is in the pool of unallocated hosts.

    Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for updating schema of a database, execution of an application in a computing environment is initiated, where the application persists data in a database, and where the schema of the database is updatable responsive to an update of the application. Responsive to determining that the schema is updated, a first instance of the schema executing in the database is received, a second instance of the schema maintained in the application is received, the first instance of the schema is compared to the second instance of the schema, a difference between the first instance of the schema and the second instance of the schema is determined, and the first instance of the schema is updated to incorporate the difference between the first instance of the schema and the second instance of the schema.

    Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for maintaining unallocated hosts of a pre-configured hyper-converged computing device at a baseline operating system version, a plurality of hosts of a pre-configured hyper-converged computing device is managed, where the plurality of hosts are allocable to workload domains, where the plurality of hosts each have an operating system version within a range of supported operating system versions, where unallocated hosts of the plurality of hosts are maintained within a pool of unallocated hosts, and where the unallocated hosts of the pool of unallocated hosts have a baseline operating system version of the range of supported operating system versions. A new unallocated host is received at the pre-configured hyper-converged computing device for inclusion to the pool of unallocated hosts. An operating system version of the new unallocated host is determined. Provided the new unallocated host has an operating system version other than the baseline operating system version, the new unallocated host is updated to the baseline operating system version. The new unallocated host is released to the pool of unallocated hosts for allocation to a workload domain.

    Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for managing hosts of a pre-configured hyper-converged computing device, a pre-configured hyper-converged computing device comprising a plurality of hosts is managed, where the plurality of hosts is allocable to workload domains, where unallocated hosts of the plurality of hosts is maintained within a pool of unallocated hosts, and where the plurality of hosts each have an operating system version. An unallocated host of the pool of unallocated hosts is determined as having an operating system version that is outside of a range of supported operating system versions. The operating system version of the unallocated host is updated to an operating system version within the range of supported operating system versions.
