Problem How Detected Fabric Response

Role instance crashes FC guest agent monitors role termination FC restarts role

Guest VM or agent crashes FC host agent notices missing guest agent heartbeats

FC restarts VM and hosted role

Host OS or agent crashes FC notices missing host agent heartbeat Tries to recover node FC reallocates roles to other nodes

Detected node hardware issue Host agent informs FC FC migrates roles to other nodes Marks node “out for repair”
