Abstract
A method and system for implementing a replica network configuration in a distributed system is provided. The system includes a memory having computer readable instructions, and one or more processors for executing the computer readable instructions. The computer readable instructions include generating a replica node that is assigned a computer readable storage medium and a processor, receiving, at the computer readable storage medium, a network configuration of the replica node from a system administrator, automatically generating, using the processor, a unique identifier (UUID) for the replica node, transmitting the UUID to a plurality of replica nodes of the distributed system arranged in the replica network configuration, and storing the UUID in the computer readable storage medium, wherein the computer readable storage medium is a persistent storage.
